Wolfpack edges Wildcats, 196.150-195.650, in EAGL dual meet
RALEIGH, N.C. – Senior Kylie Gorgenyi (North Reading, Mass.) established a personal-best 9.875 on floor exercise, senior Alyssa Worthington (West Warwick, R.I.) shared the top spot on balance beam (9.850) and the UNH gymnastics team registered its highest road score of the season in Friday night's 196.150-195.650 loss to North Carolina State at the James T. Valvano Arena at William Neal Reynolds Coliseum.
The Wildcats' record moves to 9-6 overall and 4-2 in EAGL competition.
Gorgenyi recorded at least a share of UNH's highest score in three events (vault, uneven bars, floor), and sophomore Alyssa Beaulieu (Holyoke, Mass.) won the all-around with a 39.150 that included a career-high 9.850 floor score.
"This was definitely a better away meet for us and a good confidence builder," head coach Lindsey Bruck Ayotte said. "Beau had a good all-around score, and it was nice to have KG back in all of her events."

•In the opening rotation, Gorgenyi headlined the bar lineup with a 9.850 to share third place with N.C. State's Alexis Ortega and Lauren Rutherford. Emily Shepard of the Wolfpack won bars with a 9.900. Beaulieu notched a 9.775 to tie for sixth. UNH totaled a 48.800 on bars.

•The Wildcat floor lineup featured Gorgenyi's career high (T-3rd), Beaulieu's personal best (T-5th), Mowers' career-high 9.825 (8th) and a 9.800 (T-9th) from senior co-captain Kenadi Brown (Las Vegas, Nev.) as part of a team score of 49.100, UNH's highest of the meet.
