The Big Storyline: Cornell finally competed like it’s capable of and posted a new season high by more than two points. The Big Red came up just one tenth short of the Golden Rams who had a season high day of their own.
Implications: Neither team will be making any moves in the rankings this week. However, Cornell did inch itself further ahead of Southern Connecticut, likely securing the final qualifying spot to USAG nationals. This competition should increase both West Chester and Cornell’s confidence going into the postseason. For one, we can’t completely count Cornell out of GECs. Secondly, Jessica Meakim is turning into a major all-around contender in her final season. She’s not just a floor specialist.
Records: Jessica Meakim ended the night with a 9.925 on floor to tie her career high on the event. In an interesting turn of events, Meakim first achieved the 9.925 mark in a competition against Cornell in 2019. She also totaled an all-around performance over 39 for the first time in her career. West Chester’s 49.150 on floor was a program record as well.
