On bars, Versemann totaled a 9.150, Lazarus recorded a 9.575, and Jones had a 9.800. Kelly and Hunter Vincent each totaled a 9.775, and Bria Northrop anchored with a team-best 9.825 as TWU tallied a 48.725.
 
Lazarus registered a 9.175 on beam, Alderman scored an 8.600, while Hunter Vincent had a 9.625. Kelly totaled a 9.775, and Moredock and Jones each registered a 9.850 for a team score of 48.275.
 
During the last rotation on floor, Versemann started TWU off with a 9.600, and Hope Parkin made her season-debut by scoring a 9.200. Bridgette Peterson tallied a 9.025, Alderman had an 8.650, and Moredock recorded a 9.850 before Jones finished off the meet for the Pioneers by tying her career-high on floor with a 9.900 for a 47.575 TWU score.
 
Maggie Nichols of OU posted a 10.000 on floor on her way to a 39.850 for the all-around title.
 
Head Coach Lisa Bowerman said, "We had some ups and downs today and unfortunately overall it was not the meet we were looking for. However, we will learn from it and use it to be a stronger, more prepared team going into post season."
 
The Pioneers travel to the MIC Championships hosted by Lindenwood in St. Charles, Missouri, for a meet Friday at 6 p.m.
