RALEIGH, N.C. --- 18th-ranked NC State gymnastics hosts a pair of meets this weekend against nationally ranked competition.

Friday, February 4 Pack gymnastics hosts a 17th-ranked Iowa State and EAGL foe George Washington beginning at 7 p.m.

On Sunday, February 6, 23rd-ranked Iowa visits Reynolds Coliseum for a meet beginning at 1 p.m.

The Wolfpack (1-3) enters the weekend looking to climb over .500 for the first time this season after suffering losses to #5 Oklahoma, #1 Florida, and #21 Penn State to open the year.

Freshman Diahanna Ham hopes to build on arguably her strongest performance of the year in Gainesville, which garnered an EAGL Rookie of the Week honor.

The Boston, Mass. native posted career-highs of 9.85 on vault and 9.7 on beam to win the award, the Pack's first of the season.

Friday's meet is Faculty/Staff Appreciation night. Both Friday and Sunday's meets will feature an autograph session post-meet, and will be broadcast on GoPack All-Access.
