Wildcats score 195.150 to defeat host Wolfpack and North Carolina
RALEIGH, N.C. – Kylie Gorgenyi (North Reading, Mass.) anchored the vault lineup with a team-leading and personal-best-matching 9.850 in the final rotation to propel the University of New Hampshire gymnastics team to Saturday night's come-from-behind EAGL tri-meet victory against host North Carolina State and North Carolina at Reynolds Coliseum.
UNH (9-2, 5-0 EAGL), which was in second place entering the fourth rotation, scored a 48.825 on vault and closed with a 195.150 to rally past North Carolina (4-5, 2-4 EAGL), which was in first place through three rotations before totaling a 47.950 on bars to slip into third place (194.600). N.C. State (5-4, 4-2 EAGL) scored a 49.400 on floor exercise to climb into second (194.950).
Gorgenyi tied for third on vault, equaled a personal best on bars (9.800) to share first in that event and compiled a 39.100 in all-around to finish runner-up to North Carolina State's Drew Grantham (39.225).
"It was great to come away with a win at N.C. State," head coach Lindsey Bruck Ayotte said. "I felt each event got better and better. We are looking forward to recovering with the day off Sunday to be prepared for our Monday night meet at UNC."
NEXT UP: UNH meets North Carolina again in a Monday night dual-meet rematch (6 p.m., ACCNX) at Carmichael Arena in Chapel Hill, N.C., before the Tar Heels invade Durham for the Faculty/Staff Appreciation/Camper Day meet at Lundholm Gym on Sunday, Feb. 23 (1 p.m.).
