AUBURN, Ala. - The Alabama Gymnastics team came into tonight's meet at Auburn looking for a good road score to solidify its national ranking and came away with its second highest score of the season, beating the Tigers 197.375-195.250.
It was the last meet of the regular season for Alabama and gave the Tide its second highest score of the season and fifth mark of 197 or better this season. It was also Alabama's third 197 score in a row.
"Our ladies did exactly what we asked them to do tonight," Alabama head coach Sarah Patterson said. "We told them that we wanted to go into the postseason on a high note, knowing that we were peaking. We were a little sluggish and started a little slow, and have been working through some illness, but I thought overall they responded to our challenge and did exactly what we asked them to do."
