LOGAN, Utah – Utah State's gymnastics team will be at home for the next two weekends beginning on Friday, Feb. 10, when it welcomes Boise State to the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum.
The Mountain Rim Gymnastics Conference dual meet, which will also serve as the Aggies' annual Pink Meet, is slated to begin at 7 p.m. These same two teams squared off a week ago at ExtraMile Arena in Boise, Idaho, with the Broncos coming out victorious, 196.325-195.675.
"Last week we were able to put together three very solid events," said first-year Utah State head coach Kristin White. "Our team is looking forward to putting all four together on Friday. The first home competition was electric and we are pumped for another night in the Spectrum. We talked about the importance of competing for something bigger than ourselves on Friday, and we are honored to be bringing awareness to breast cancer and look forward to competing for our friends, families and fans that have been affected by this disease."
Friday's meet will be streamed at utahstateaggies.com/watch, live scoring will be available online at utahstateaggies.com and Aggie fans can also follow the Utah State gymnastics social media outlets for meet updates. Tickets to the meet can be purchased
