Pack Set Three Season-High Event Scores
RALEIGH – NC State gymnastics set a trio of season-high event scores on vault, bars, and beam on Saturday afternoon in Reynolds Coliseum as the Wolfpack posted a 196.650 and picked up a pair of EAGL victories over George Washington (195.250) and Pitt (195.150).
The Pack's all-around score marked the 14th-highest total in program history, and is the highest tally thus far in NC State's 2023 campaign.
Vault (49.175)
The Wolfpack kicked the evening off by NC State posting a season-high team score on vault highlighted by senior Chloe Negrete's first of three scores of 9.900. Negrete followed a 9.875 from eventual all-around runner-up Emily Shepard, while Lauren Rutherford tallied her first of three scores of 9.850 on vault. Negrete's 9.900 tied her career high in the event while eclipsing her previous season-high mark of 9.875.
Bars (49.125)
NC State posted five scores of 9.800+ in its second rotation led by Rutherford and Hailey Merchant adding scores of 9.850. Merchant's mark set a new season high for the sophomore as Merchant and Rutherford were followed by Alexis Ortega at 9.825. Freshman Kailee Adomaites additionally finished with a 9.800 which matched the score of Peyton Childs. The 49.125 event score improved NC State's previous team season high by a .025 margin from the Pack's dual meet against Michigan State on Jan. 14.
Beam (49.200)
NC State's third season-high event score of the evening came on beam, where the Wolfpack posted an event-high score of 49.200. Negrete led the way for NC State with a 9.900 showing while Shepard's 9.875 improved her season high by a full tenth of a point. Beam specialist Macy Jennings fired a 9.825 while Ortega and Krista Zultevicz posted a pair of 9.800s.
Floor (49.150)
A wire-to-wire win for the Wolfpack ended on floor with Negrete once again leading the way at 9.900. Shepard once again followed with a 9.875 while Rutherford tallied her third 9.850 of the contest. Floor specialist Madison Benson added a 9.775 of her own after making her 2023 debut last week while Gabrielle Diaz closed out the scoring effort with a 9.750. NC State's floor tally of 49.150 marked the first time since Mar. 6, 2022, that all four events ended with a score of 49.000+ for the Wolfpack.
Up Next
NC State returns to action on Friday, Jan. 27 when it makes its second road trip of the season, this time headed to Auburn, Ala. to face No. 7 Auburn in a dual meet. Friday's contest is slated to begin at 7 p.m. and will be held at Auburn's Neville Arena.
