Implications: Towson was able to improve its NQS in both meets this weekend to take over the top spot in the EAGL and No. 23 overall. Utah State also improved its NQS at both meets and sits right in the mix for a seeded regionals berth.
Records: Utah State’s total score was the highest home score in school history and the fifth best overall. Nikki Borkowski’s 9.925 on floor was a career high.

Current Rankings: No. 25 Towson at No. 14 Utah State
Why You Should Make Time to Tune in: It’s a fun underrated dual meet between the MRGC’s Utah State and the EAGL’s Towson. This is the second meet between these two teams this weekend, both at Utah State. Utah State is making strides this season, leading to its No. 14 overall ranking and highest team NQS in school history—and the Aggies haven’t even hit their full potential yet. It’s CLOSE in the MRGC. Towson is also quietly excelling; it currently sits just 0.050 out of first place in the EAGL and is realistically a top contender for the conference title.
Need More Proof? Brie Clark’s floor is can’t-miss—you won’t want to turn the meet off early; she’s found her stride on beam as well. Sofi Sullivan is always a highlight there, too. Brianna Brooks has also been steadily great on bars and beam. Towson freshman Clara Hong is making a name for herself on three events; she most recently notched a 9.900 on bars but is great on beam and floor as well. Her teammate Emerson Hurst is gorgeous on beam as well. On vault, Camille Vitoff and Jenna Weitz are ones to watch; Vitoff has the potential to vault a Yurchenko one and a half.
