The University of Utah has accepted an invitation to host the 2012 Pac-12 Gymnastics Championship in its inaugural year as a conference member, Utah co-head coach Greg Marsden announced today. The meet is scheduled for Saturday, Mar. 24, 2012.
The seven Pac-12 schools that sponsor gymnastics (Arizona, Arizona State, Oregon State, Stanford, UCLA, Utah and Washington) will participate in the 2012 Pac-10 Championship. The meet's format will consist of one session with three bye rotations.
"We are honored for the opportunity to host the Pac-12 Gymnastics Championship in our first year of participation as a conference member," said Marsden. "We anticipate that our great fan support will help further the distinction of what is already one of the most prestigious events in NCAA Gymnastics."
Utah is the nation's attendance leader in women's gymnastics, averaging over 11,000 fans per meet for the past 20 years, including an NCAA record 14,213 average a year ago, when Utah became the first team other than basketball to win a women's collegiate season attendance title.
While Utah will officially begin its Pac-12 membership next year, the gymnastics program has a long and storied history with the conference. Utah has competed against Pac-10 schools 337 times in its 35-year history, building a 291-43-3 record against them. Utah (9) and UCLA (6) have combined to win 15 of the 29 NCAA Gymnastics Championships to date. Utah has 10 national titles total, including the 1981 AIAW Championship, while UCLA is the defending NCAA Champion.
This season, Utah's 11-meet regular season schedule includes competitions against five Pac-10 schools (UCLA, Stanford, Arizona State, Washington and Oregon State).
For most of its history, Utah has operated as a gymnastics independent, although it participated in the High Country Athletic Conference Championship from 1986-90 and the Western Athletic Conference Championship from 1991-93. Utah won all eight conference meets during that time, serving as host of the 1986 and 1990 HCAC Championships.
