The Big Storyline: Penn State was able to hit bars and beam, showcasing beautiful form and flexibility. The team scored a season high on both events to grab its first win and highest overall total of the season so far. Maryland continued to struggle on bars and could not overcome the deficit on the remainder events to top the Nittany Lions for the second time this year.
Implications: The first meet between the two universities did not count as a conference meet. This could play a role later on in the season as the Nittany Lions currently sit behind the Terrapins in Big Ten and the overall rankings. However, they grabbed the win in the conference meet, which could serve as a tiebreaker later on when it comes to regular season standings. Cassidy Rushlow should be on the radar for an individual appearance at nationals in the all around.
Records: Cassidy Rushlow scored a career best 39.475 in the all around.
