LOGAN, Utah – Utah State gymnastics will compete in 13 regular season meets, including six home competitions, as its 2026 schedule was announced Wednesday by fourth-year head coach
Kristin White.
It is the first time Utah State will have six home meets since the 2009 season. Fans will also notice different start times during the 2026 competition season. Its home opener on Saturday, Jan. 17, is part of a doubleheader with women's basketball and will begin at noon, while its remaining home meets will all begin at 6:30 p.m.
Head Coach Kristin White
"Our 2026 schedule reflects everything we want for this program — challenging competition, opportunities to showcase our grit and young team, and unforgettable moments to bring our fans, family, and community together. Every opportunity will be a chance to grow and build as we represent this university with pride.
"We have an exciting six meet home schedule this season that will include every Mountain West team, a quad meet, and a future Pac12 opponent. We look forward to hosting these teams in the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum this season. I encourage all fans to invest in season tickets. Show up, cheer loud, and help us continue our trajectory of success. Your support directly impacts retaining and recruiting our current and future student-athletes.
"We will be doing a few different things this year with our home competitions. We will be hosting a Monday and Saturday meet. We are excited to bring gymnastics to Logan on another day besides Friday. Another change is we will begin our home meets at 6:30 p.m. We believe this time change will help increase fan attendance for our families with younger children."
