The Broncos started the day on the uneven bars, and were anchored by performances from sophomore Sarah Moravansky, who posted a team-high score of 9.850, as well as fellow sophomore Dani Petrousek, who was close behind with a 9.750.

Following the bars, the Broncos then shifted gears to compete on vault where they posted a team score of 48.975.
