HUNTSMAN RECORD CROWD SAYS GOODBYE TO SENIORS IN UTAH’S WIN OVER MICHIGAN
On four separate occasions, the Huntsman Center crowd rose to its feet to say good-bye to Utah’s four seniors.
In their last regular season meet at the Huntsman Center, Utah’s seniors — Tory Wilson, Corrie Lothrop, Georgia Dabritz, and Becky Tutka — performed all in a row on floor to close out the meet, and they didn’t disappoint.

All four scored at least a 9.925, launching No. 4 Utah to a 198.250-197.675 victory over No. 5 Michigan and to its third best score in its history.
