PEAKING AT THE RIGHT TIME
The Gymbacks have posted their two highest scores of the season over the last two weeks, earning a 197.000 at Elevate the Stage and a 196.525 at home on Senior Night. The Hogs are one of three league teams to score its highest scores of the season in the final two weeks of action.

CARTER ELITE ON THE FLOOR
Sophomore Sophia Carter continues her run on the floor, earning her fourth score of 9.950 last Saturday. The Blue Springs, Missouri native now has eight event titles this season and nine scores of 9.900 or higher on the event, good for second most in the SEC.

MCGLONE GOING OUT IN STYLE
Senior Sydney McGlone has made the most of her senior year at Arkansas, earning a pair of career highs of 9.925 on the floor, and vaulting over 9.800 in 10-of-11 meets. Overall, McGlone has vaulted to a 9.800 or higher in 31-of her 39 career vaults.

VAULTING CONSISTENTLY
After vaulting to team scores of 49 or higher in 7-of-11 meets this season, and missing the mark by a combined 0.125 in two combined meets, the Razorbacks have shown vast improvement on the event this season after hitting the mark in just four meets total last season. Arkansas is led by two 10.0 vaults from freshmen Amanda Elswick and Kennedy Hambrick.

CARTER MAKES TOP-10
Sophia Carter has made team history several times on the floor exercise this season, earning an individual No. 1 ranking on the event after the first week of action, and remaining in the top-10 at the conclusion of the regular season. Both accolades were the first of their kind for an individual at Arkansas since 2014.

STARTING ON THE FLOOR
The SEC Championships will mark Arkansas’ fourth quad meet this season, and second in which it will start on the floor. At Elevate the Stage on March 8, Arkansas started on the floor with a 49.400 en route to a 197.000; which marked its highest road score in the regular season in program history.
