The Cougars were up and down on the night though recording a 193.725 while the Wildcats recorded a season-best 196.575 score. Host TWU turned in a 191.425 performance.
BYU came out with a good performance on vault. Smart led the way for the Cougars at 9.825 while Hayley Jensen added a 9.775 and Brittany Fischer tied her career-high 9.750 for BYU. Arizona's Karin Wurm was first at 9.900 while Nakia Westbrook led the Pioneers at 9.850.
Bars were slippery for the Cougars though as two gymnasts fell. Kylee Draper turned in a good night for BYU however with a 9.800. Capra and Willis each added a 9.775 and Jennifer Matthews recorded a 9.750 for the Cougars. Aubrey Taylor of Arizona was tops on the event at 9.850 and Courtney Arno was TWU's top performer at 9.775.

Arizona's Aubrey Taylor captured first-place honors at 9.900 and Tonya Pipkorn was the Pioneers' top scorer at 9.775.
After recording their highest score of the season on floor against Southern Utah Wednesday, the Cougars had some struggles Saturday night. Smart recorded a strong performance on the apparatus though with a 9.825 to lead the Cougars while Kacie Capra and Lisa Willis each scored 9.750 for BYU. The Wildcats' Wurm was first at 9.900 while Pipkorn was again TWU's top finisher at 9.725.
