After finishing first at the 2017 NCAA Fayetteville Regional, the No. 4 University of Utah gymnastics team will travel to St. Louis, Mo. to compete at the NCAA Championships. This marks the Red Rocks’ 42nd straight appearance at nationals.
The Red Rocks had to overcome some adversity in the week leading up to regionals when sophomore Kari Lee sprained her ankle. Co-head coach Megan Marsden had hoped that it would heal up a little better before the meet, but it was enough for Lee to manage a dismount on bars.
With Lee sitting out the rest of the events, Marsden had to make some adjustments to the lineups.
