This meet is part of the Southeastern Conference “Pink” initiative. This requires all SEC teams to host/attend a competition in which the athletes must wear pink to support breast cancer survivors and awareness.

 

The first 2,000 fans to the O’Dome will receive a Gators Link to Pink t-shirt with the theme of the meet, “Believe.”

 

Florida continues it’s home streak after beating Arkansas 197.525-196.025 in the O’Connell Center on Valentine’s Day. That competition was the fourth straight that at least one Gator scored a perfect 10.0. Kytra Hunter joined Bridget Sloan in the exclusive club of Gator gymnasts to score a perfect 10.0 on multiple events after she scored a 10.0 on her Yurchenko one and a half vault.

 

Kytra Hunter has a personal goal of earning 10 perfect 10.0’s in one season. She has already accomplished three this season. Can she do it? I guess we’ll find out tonight!

LSU’s Lloimincia Hall has a very distinct and unique floor style and will definitely be one routine you don’t want to miss! Hall has scored a perfect 10.0 on floor twice already this season and provides tough competition for Sloan and Hunter. Tiger, Rheagan Courville, has also scored a perfect 10.0 on vault.

 

This Tigers team shares the same innate competitive drive as the Gators. LSU has deep line-ups on each event and has the confidence to execute their routines smoothly.

 

This will be the fourth straight road meet for the Tigers who appear to be unfazed by their opponent’s home advantage.

 

This match-up is sure to be one of the top stories in the NCAA this week! Stay tuned for results, interviews, and routines!
