The Red Rocks scored a 196.900 to open the 2020-21 season.

The 2021 college gymnastics season in the Beehive State kicked off Saturday night as Utah, BYU, SUU and Utah State competed at the Best of Utah meet at the Maverik Center in West Valley City.

Perhaps as to be expected, Utah, which was ranked No. 4 in the country in the preseason poll, ran away with the meet win, compiling a score of 196.9. BYU was next at 195.7, SUU came in third with a score of 194.325 and Utah State was fourth at 194.1.
