Sun Devil Outlook
No. 21 Arizona State (8-5)

• The Sun Devils are coming off of their best performance of the season, scoring a 197.600 in the win over Southern Connecticut on Senior Night last Friday. The squad earned season highs on beam (49.550) and floor (49.450). The beam score is tied for the sixth-highest in ASU history, the highest the Sun Devils have earned since 2007.
• Arizona State earned a winning record for the third-consecutive season, the longest such streak since the early 2000s. ASU hasn't had a losing record since 2017.
• ASU scored at least a 49.000 on all four events, making that nine meets in a row doing so. The vault streak is up to 21 in a row with 49-plus, extending the program record. Additionally, the bars streak is up to 20 in a row, a new program record.
• Senior Emily White had a historic night as she broke and tied many of her previous records. Earning three 9.950s on bars, beam, and floor, she set a new career high all-around record with a 39.625, which is now the 15th highest all-around record in program history. Her beam and floor scores tied her personal best, while her bars score set a new career high. She claimed all event titles except vault, earning her first event titles of the season on bars and in the all-around.
