In Haas Pavilion, cardboard cutouts stand in place of an electrified crowd. Smiles are covered with bedazzled masks, and opposing teams keep their distance. However, adapting to the crowdless arena, the No. 8 Bears acted as their own fans, drowning out the deafening silence with cheers.
While elbow taps and magic fingers replaced hugs and high-fives, the Bears’ high-energy performance delivered a decisive victory over the Falcons. After 335 days without competition, the blue and gold dominated by a score of 195.75-188.95.
The Bears demonstrated consistency across the board by sweeping the meet’s all-around titles. Senior Kyana George claimed the all-around crown, leading the competition with a commanding 39.375, followed by sophomore Nevaeh DeSouza, who earned a score of 39.250, and senior Nina Schank, who scored a 38.925.
