“It was a great start for this program,” Utah women's gymnastics coach Tom Farden said after the No. 3 Utes beat No. 6 LSU on Friday night before a crowd of 11,585 at the Huntsman Center.

Brenner introduced herself to the Utah crowd in a big way with a 9.875 on the vault and followed that up with a 9.875 on the uneven bars. “They were aggressive and didn’t hold back,” Farden said. “There were some fantastic performances tonight.” The Utes greeted the season with a 49.475 on the event, displaying all the skills that have made them so good on the beam.
The Utes’ score gave them a 148.05-147.675 lead going into the final rotation. Even though the Tigers were within a fall away from the Utes, there was a strong sense the Utes weren’t going to give them that kind of mistake on such a big opening night. “There was an exactness in our skills,” Farden said. “For the first meet and it being LSU and on ESPN there could be some jitters and I really thought the team handled it well.”
