Gymnastics isn’t the sport Arkansas athletics has had at the top of its interest list among fans in the wintertime for a while.
But coach Jordyn Wieber, a former Olympic champion, and the Razorbacks have been making a steady climb for the last couple years.
The Razorbacks beat Ohio State in each event and senior Kennedy Hambrick won the all-around title while also scoring within the top three of all four events (vault, bars, beam and floor).as stellar for a final score of 9.875. Arkansas continued to show its excellence on floor with a final mark of 49.100.
Arkansas’ next meet is Friday, January 14 against Auburn. The meet will mark the first ever gymnastics meet inside Bud Walton Arena.
