The No. 12 Arkansas gymnastics team continued it’s record-breaking season on Sunday, setting a new all-time high score in a win over No. 13 Missouri.
The Gymbacks (7-5-1, 4-2-1 SEC) posted a team score of 197.650 against the Tigers, topping the previous high score by just over a tenth of a point. Ironically, the previous top score was also set this season, 197.525, in a tie with Alabama on Jan. 19.
It was also the fifth time this season that Arkansas has posted a score over 197, matching the program’s single-season record.
It was the final regular-season SEC contest for the Gymbacks, as they finish with a conference record of 4-2-1, which is their most victories since 2016 and most under fifth-year Head Coach Jordyn Wieber.
Adding even more punch to the day, the Razorbacks also set a program-record on the balance beam, with a team score of 49.575.
Five Gymbacks finished with at least a 9.9 on the beam, with junior Maddie Jones, freshman Hailey Klein and sophomore Cami Weaver, all tying for second-place with scores of 9.925. Missouri senior Sienna Schreiber claimed top honors with a perfect score of 10.0.
Sophomores Frankie Price and Lauren Williams came in a four-way tie for first on vault with 9.875 scores, while Jones claimed the bars crown with a season-high 9.925, and Williams also got a victory on floor with her 9.950.
Arkansas will next face the best team in the land, as back-to-back national champion, No. 1 Oklahoma comes to town for a dual meet on Sunday at Bud Walton Arena. The meet starts at 4 p.m., and will be aired live on SEC Network+.
