ST. LOUIS—It is only fitting that in the final Super Six, one of the charter members will be competing for the NCAA Gymnastics championship. Utah, which is making its 21st Super Six appearance, is one of just two schools in this year's field that also participated in the inaugural Super Six in 1993. Utah's 21 Super Six appearances is tied for second with UCLA—the other member of that original 1993 field. Next year, the championships will feature two four-team semifinals and a final four.

The 2018 Super Six starts at 5:00 Mountain Time and will be televised on ESPNU and streamed live on ESPN.com. Links to the live streams for every event and the overall view can be found by clicking on the tabs in the red sidebar of this story. The teams competing for the NCAA title are Utah, Oklahoma, UCLA, Florida, LSU and Nebraska. A link to live scores is also found in the side bar. The meet will be broadcast live on ESPN 700 radio.
Â
The Utes will try to win their first NCAA Championship since 1995, which was their record-tying 10th national title (ninth NCAA). The Utes have finished second five times since, most recently in 2015, when they finished five hundredths of a point behind champion Florida. Oklahoma is the two-time defending NCAA champion and has won three of the last four NCAA Championships.
Â
Leading the way for the Utes is sophomore MyKayla Skinner, who last night became Utah's first NCAA vault champion since 1992 (Kristen Kenoyer) and was the NCAA all-around runner-up for the second straight year. She is the first Ute to finish as the NCAA all-around runner-up in consecutive years since Ashley Postell placed second from 2006-08.
Â
The Utes drew the identical rotation for the Super Six as they did a year ago when they placed fifth at the 2017 NCAA Championships: floor, vault, bye, bars, beam, bye. Utah's first competitor will be senior Tiffani Lewis, who scored a 9.875 on floor last night.

Ute Notes
- Megan Marsden earned her 200th career victory as Utah's co-head coach. Marsden, in her ninth season as the co-head coach (third with current co-coach Tom Farden) has a 200-68-3 career record. She is in her 34th season overall at Utah.
