PROVO, Utah – BYU gymnastics will compete in the NCAA regional meet on Saturday, April 4, with hopes to earn a spot at the NCAA Championships.

"We're excited for the opportunity to compete in regionals again," BYU gymnastics coach Brad Cattermole said. "We've had a few bumps in the road this season with injuries, but the team has worked hard to get to where we are right now. We've worked hard to qualify and we'll be competing against a lot of great teams."

BYU competes in regionals for the 24th time in the last 26 years and will be a participant with the Berkeley Regional. The group includes No. 3 Utah, No. 10 Georgia, No. 15 Boise State, No. 20 California and Utah State.

"Three of the five teams in our bracket we've competed against this season, so we know it will not be easy," Cattermole said. "Hopefully, we hit all our routines and give ourselves a chance to advance."

The top two teams will advance to the NCAA Championships held on April 17-19 in Fort Worth, Texas.

Last season in regionals, the Cougars finished in sixth place with a 194.650. This year, BYU scored a season-high 196.375 against Utah State in its last regular season meet. The team has posted top team scores of 49.175 on vault, 49.050 on bars, 49.025 on beam and 49.250 on floor.

The meet will begin at 6 p.m. PDT in Berkeley, California, in Haas Pavilion. Tickets can be purchased on California’s website, here
