For only the second time in school history, the Utah Red Rocks gymnastics program took a transfer when former Maryland gymnast Macey Roberts made the decision to come to Utah prior to the 2017 season. In her first season at Utah, Roberts has been an integral member of the Red Rocks team that is ranked No. 5 in the nation and finished the regular season 10-2, competing on both floor and vault.
“It was a chance lost,” said Marsden about Roberts’ recruitment. She was in the same class coming out of high school as sophomores Shannon McNatt, MaKenna Merrell, and Sabrina Schwab, the reigning Pac-12 Freshman of the Year, and freshman MyKayla Skinner, who delayed her enrollment at Utah for one year to try to make the 2016 Olympics.
