Southern Utah junior Ellie Cacciola (Owasso, OK) put up a 9.825 on beam, helping SUU to a 49.325 event total against No. 33 BYU (Mar. 4). On the Floor, Cacciola set a season-high 9.875, helping the Thunderbirds become the first-ever MPSF team to reach 197 with 197.125. She tied her season-high on floor with a 9.875 in the team win over No. 23 Penn State (Mar. 8). Her best routine of the night, however, came on the beam where she scored an incredible 9.950 to become the first gymnast in MPSF history to hit that mark more than once. This is the first career MPSF award for Cacciola.
