Gymnasts scores third straight PB in all-around

Briannah Tsang is having first rate freshman start in Big 12 with the Penn State women's gymnastics team

Burnaby's Briannah Tsang just keeps getting better.

The true freshman Penn State University gymnast set a career-high score in the all-around for a third consecutive meet in a dual sweep over Maryland in NCAA Division I Big 12 conference action last weekend.

Tsang scored 9.825 or higher in all four disciplines to earn the school's Ann Carr award for the first time with a career-best total score of 39.500.

Tsang placed first on the balance beam with a 9.950 score, while also taking top spot on floor exercises with 9.875 points. She also posted a career-high score of 9.850 on the uneven bars to place runner-up in that event. Tsang was also tied for fifth-best on the vault as Penn State combined to beat Maryland 196.550 to 194.450 at University Park, Pennsylvania on Saturday.

Next up for Penn State is Illinois. The Nittany Lions start off the month of February at home against top-20 schools Michigan State and Ohio State.
