It's the final home meet for seniors Maddie MacDonald, Bri Slonim and Rachel Benoit and serves as a showdown between two teams fighting for position in the national standings.
BSU, a 195.800 team in a win at NIU last weekend, is shooting for another high score to improve its National Qualifying Score (NQS). Ball State has been powered by standout routines on vault (24th in the nation) and floor exercise (28th nationally). North Carolina, is 38th with a 195.240 NQS and is trying to score high to break into the national top 36.Â
