UB was leading Towson going into rotation four, and the Tigers hit some big vaults, including 3 of the top scores on the event that day, but UB held the lead with a floor rotation featuring 4 of the top scores of the meet on that event. This meet featured two ECAC D1 teams and two ECAC D2 teams, plus Temple, SCSU, and UB are also members of the USAG Collegiate nationals division and the post season is approaching in a few weeks.

Temple and Rutgers Meet Preview
Temple Owls at Rutgers Scarlet Knights
Livingston Gymnasium, Piscataway, New Jersey 7pm Wednesday, January 27th
(Scores from Troester and some eyewitness accounts)
Wins and losses are one thing, but so is one’s place in the rankings, but all the same Rutgers hopes to defeat the entire city of Philadelphia in the span of just 5 days as Coach Aaron Murphy’s Temple team will make the brief trip up to Piscataway. Coach Chrystal Chollet-Norton’s Scarlet Knights defeated Penn in Philly on Saturday. The Owls will likely be disinterested in giving RU the pleasure of sweeping the city’s teams though. Both teams are very close in scoring and rankings so it should be a close meet. While Rutgers competes in the EAGL and Temple is in the ECAC, both teams are in the USAG Collegiate Division as well which is open to teams with a limited number of scholarships. Rutgers currently sits second in the USAG rankings and Temple is right behind them at 3. Temple continues to lead #4 Bridgeport in the rankings despite falling to the Purple Knights just days ago at Ursinus. Both teams have had a busy few days.
