LINCOLN, Neb. – The Air Force women's gymnastics team's 193.925 finish at Nebraska on Saturday was marked by a consistent effort for the Falcons, coupled with a number of benchmark performances for the Falcons with postseason competition just around the corner.

From Head Coach Jennifer Green on the Evening's Performance:
"Nebraska had a fantastic crowd and it felt like a championship environment. The team stayed calm, focused, and most importantly together.

"We had people stepping up in lineups and making their collegiate debut—I couldn't be more proud.

"First event, first competitor and the cable drops in the beginning of Madison Carlisle's bar routine. That could have caused panic and ruined the mindset of the team. The freshman stayed poised and came back with an amazing set and the team rallied. This showed growth and maturity.

"Then we ended the night with the best vault rotation we've had all season!

"We are thrilled to be hosting conference, look forward to being home and packing Clune Arena."
