SALT LAKE CITY — No. 5 Utah gymnastics is ready to swing into the season this weekend.

There’s the usual hype at the beginning of the season, but what has the Red Rocks excited this time around is its added depth, MyKayla Skinner’s upgraded difficulty, and its new marketing look.

Freshmen add depth

Three gymnasts from last year’s team left the program due to graduation. While the Red Rocks lost four routines from those seniors, they gained four freshmen, and the team feels as though it gained more routines than it lost.

“We’ve increased a little bit of depth from last year’s squad,” Utah co-head coach Megan Marsden said.
