PROVO -- In a spectacular performance by the BYU women's gymnastics team, the Cougars defeated the University of Kentucky Wildcats Friday night 196.8 to 192.475.

A crowd of 1,729 fans in the Marriott Center watched as the Cougars broke their previous season high of 195.9, and Senior Lindsay Butterfield took first in the all-around competition for the first time in her college career with a career-high score of 39.325.

The Cougars also received season high marks on vault (49.0), bars (49.275) and floor (49.450). The 49.075 BYU received on the beam was their second beam highest score this season.

"This is the kind of meet we have been capable of," BYU head coach Brad Cattermole said. "We just had to go out there at hit like we know we can--and we did. "

On vault, BYU's Trisha Aston took first with a 9.925 and teammate Kirsten Pauga took second with a 9.900.

Butterfield, who was BYU's only all-around competitor in the meet tied for first place on bars with two of her teammates, Brogan Jacobsen and Kari Lords with a score of 9.875. The score is a career high for Lords and tied Butterfield's season high.

Butterfield also took first on the beam with a career high score of 9.900. Teammate Trisha Ashton took second with a 9.850. University of Kentucky's Michelle Gales received a score of 9.8.25, placing her at third on the beam.

The floor brought the biggest scores of the evening, and the biggest audience reaction. Three Cougars received career high scores on the floor. Brogan Jacobsen took first place with her career-high 9.925. Butterfield followed closely behind with a 9.900, and Lisa Willis, Candace Slater and Brooke Haskett tied for third place with a 9.875--a career high for Willis.

"The floor routines were really on tonight," Cattermole said. "The excitement builds, and the girls catch on to that. They feed off of each other."

The Cougars compete again in the Marriott Center next weekend against Utah State, Southern Utah and Central Michigan at 7 p.m.

PROVO -- After four weeks of road competition, the BYU women's gymnastics team comes home to host the University of Kentucky on Friday, Feb. 28, at 7 p.m. in the Marriott Center.

"The whole team is so excited to finally compete at home," BYU's head coach Brad Cattermole said. "We love to be home and have a big crowd cheering us on."

Friday's meet is Gymnastics' Disco Night as well as Cosmo's Kid's Club Night. Prizes will be given away to those with the best disco outfits, and a pre-meet pizza party will be held for the Kid's Club members.

The Cougars competed against the Kentucky Wildcats on January 31, in Lexington, Ken. After some falls on the bars and beam, the Cougars lost to the Wildcats with their lowest score this season, 194.075 to 192.475.

"We just couldn't hit that night," Cattermole explained. "We are capable of so much more then that, and the girls are ready to go out there and prove it."

Despite the low team score in their last match up with Kentucky, individual Cougars placed well in the meet. Lindsay Butterfield took third in the all-around, Brooke Haskett tied for second on bars and took second on floor, and on the beam, Kari Lords took second, and Trisha Ashton took third.

Last week, the Cougars competed in Logan against Utah State. The Cougars fell to the Aggies, but scored in the 195's for the third time this season with a 195.625.

The Cougars are currently ranked No. 30, up four spots from their position last week at No. 34.
