Utah gymnastics coach Tom Farden has earned a good reputation amongst his peers in recent seasons. Now, his fellow coaches are showing him just how much respect they have for his coaching talents by voting the Utes fifth in the Women’s Collegiate Gymnastics Association preseason poll.
This is the third year in a row the Utes have been ranked fifth in the preseason poll, but it is the first season in the program’s history that there isn’t a Marsden on the coaching staff, since Megan Marsden followed her husband Greg into retirement at the end of the 2019 season.
