Utah Gymnastics Stay Put In Latest Road To Nationals Rankings
Jan 22, 2024, 10:13 AM
SALT LAKE CITY – After an impressive start to their season, the Red Rocks stumbled in week two before recovering quickly in week three.
Utah came in fourth place in their first quad meet at the Maverik Center nearly two weeks ago on January 13 after some highly uncharacteristic mistakes.
The Utes didn’t have time to dwell on it having to compete just three days later last Monday and put up a performance that much more resembled what Red Rocks fans are accustomed to.
Unfortunately, the poor performance did set the Red Rocks back a few spots in the last week’s rankings after checking in at No. 2 after week one.
1️⃣ week until we’re back in the Huntsman! 🙌🏼
Be there when the Red Rocks begin Pac-12 play against ASU next Friday at 6pm…

What Is Next For The Red Rocks
