Athens • Utah’s seventh-ranked gymnastics team faces its biggest road test of the season tonight as it takes on the No. 8 Georgia Gym Dogs here in Athens.

Utah has won the last three meetings with the Dogs, but Utah has struggled in hostile arenas such as Georgia’s.

The meet is not televised, but live video is available on www.georgiadogs.com.

Utah’s Tory Wilson is going for her ninth straight vault win, which would tie Ashley’s Postell’s streak she set in 2008.

A tight individual competition tonight should be on the uneven bars, where Georgia has the No. 1 bar worker in Chelsea Davis. Sophomore Georgia Dabritz is ranked No. 8 for Utah.

The Utes return home next week to host Florida in the season finale.
