Iowa State Falls to Missouri in Season Opener
01.04.2026 | Gymnastics
COLUMBIA, Mo. - Iowa State (0-1, 0-0 Big 12) fell to Missouri (1-0, 0-0 SEC) on Sunday afternoon. The Cyclones finished with 191.325 while Missouri finished with 196.850.
Sunday afternoon marked the opening of the 2026 season for ISU. The team traveled down to the seventh-ranked program in the country to compete against the Tigers. Haylee Hardin was the standout on Sunday for the Cyclones, as the sophomore tallied a 9.9 on floor – the highest score of any Cyclone. Ella Schell also had a stellar afternoon for ISU as she led off three events and recorded a score of 9.875 on floor. Aubree Guinee earned a 9.775 for Iowa State on vault.
"It was a tough one today. Obviously, not the way we wanted to open up the 2026 season. What we showed out there today is not who we are and not who we've been. I think today was an eye-opener for this team, and I am excited for them to come out next week and really show who they are," said Head Coach Ashley Miles Greig.
Vault (48.525)
Aubree Guinee was the leader on vault this afternoon with a score of 9.775. Guinee's high score came on her collegiate vault debut as she only competed on floor as a freshman. Following close behind was the sophomore duo of Frederique Sgarbossa and Haylee Hardin, who both put up scores of 9.725. True freshman Ella Roberts made her collegiate debut for ISU on the day, recording a 9.650.
