THE MEET

The Boise State gymnastics team, ranked No. 21 in Road to Nationals, will head to San Jose, Calif., to take on San Jose State and Seattle Pacific in a tri-meet Sunday at the Provident Credit Union Event Center. The Broncos (0-2), Spartans (3-2) and Falcons (1-2) are slated to begin at 3 p.m. MT, and the meet will be streamed live on Twitter.

SERIES HISTORY
Boise State leads the all-time series against both San Jose State (34-6-1) and Seattle Pacific (53-9), boasting a streak of six-consecutive wins over the Spartans and 35-straight victories over the Falcons.

IN THE RANKINGS
The most recent edition of Road to Nationals was released prior to the Broncos' second meet of the season, and as such does not include scores from Washington (Jan. 20).  As things currently stand, Boise State is ranked No. 21 nationally (195.474), with its bars (fourth; 49.325) and beam (seventh; 49.150) line-ups each ranking in the top 10.

Individually, junior Emily Muhlenhaupt ranks tied for eighth nationally on bars (9.925) and tied for 25th nationally on beam (9.875) along with senior Isabella Amado. Junior Gabriela Bouza (T45th; 9.825) is the Broncos' highest-ranked individual on vault, and junior Tatum Bruden (114th; 9.800) is the team's top performer on floor.

MUHLENHAUPT GARNERS WEEKLY HONOR
Emily Muhlenhaupt was named Mountain Rim Gymnastics Conference Specialist of the Week following her season-opening performance on bars at fourth-ranked UCLA, Jan. 12. It was the fourth-career such honor for Muhlenhaupt, having also earned the award three times in 2019. Against the Bruins, Muhlenhaupt led the Broncos on bars with a 9.925, the highest score by a Boise State individual on any event.

FIVE-STRAIGHT TITLES
The Broncos captured their fifth-consecutive Mountain Rim Gymnastics Conference title this past season, the longest championship streak for a Boise State athletic program since the football team also won five-straight in the Western Athletic Conference from 2002-06. The only program with a longer streak in Boise State history was the wrestling team, which won seven-straight Big Sky Conference Championships from 1974-80.

12-STRAIGHT REGIONALS
Boise State made its 12th-consecutive NCAA Regional Championship appearance this past season. Competing in the Corvallis Regional in the new NCAA postseason format, the Broncos advanced to the Regional Final, finishing second in the opening session. The Broncos, which entered the regional ranked No. 12 – the highest ranking entering regionals in school history – finished fourth in the Regional Final.

AMERICA'S HIGHEST GPA
The Broncos combined for a team GPA of 3.77 this past academic year, the third time in four seasons the team finished with the highest grade-point average in the country amongst gymnastics programs, per the WCGA. Boise State also boasted the nation's highest GPA in both 2015-16 and 2017-18. The Broncos had the second-highest GPA in the country in 2016-17, and the third-highest in 2014-15. Boise State also boasted 13 WCGA Scholastic All-Americans.

TEAM CAPTAINS
Seniors Isabella Amado and Courtney McGregor were voted team captains for the 2020 season by their teammates. Each competed in the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio, for Panama and New Zealand, respectively, and each plans to go to medical school following their competitive career. Both Amado and McGregor have been named Academic All-MRGC and WCGA Scholastic All-America in each of their three seasons with the Broncos.
