Ute Insider
MyKayla Skinner returned to the floor and all-around lineup at last week's Gymquarters Invitational, winning floor and finishing second all-around. Due to the limited time between meets, Skinner did not compete on floor in Monday's meet at Stanford to rest her sore ankle … Freshman Hunter Dula and sophomore Lauren Wong warmed up on vault at the Gymquarters Invitational, although neither competed on the event. Dula is a starter on bars, which is the event where Wong competed once as a freshman in 2018 … Skinner has been named the Pac-12 Gymnast of the Week three times this season (Jan. 8, Jan. 23, Jan. 29). Isa was the Pac-12 Freshman of the Week on Jan. 8 and Adrienne Randall was the Pac-12 Freshman of the Week on Feb. 5.
