PROVO -- The BYU women's gymnastics team used 12 individual season highs and two career highs from Kylee Draper to edge Utah State 193.525 -- 192.550 in its home opener Thursday night in the Smith Fieldhouse. The Cougars improved to 3-2 on the season.

"I'm very proud of Kylee," BYU coach Brad Cattermole said of Draper. "I'm thrilled with her enthusiasm. She had a good night."

The Cougars started off on vault, taking a 48.750 -- 48.075 advantage after the first rotation. Dayna Smart recorded a season high 9.825 in taking first place on the event. Hayley Jensen matched her career high 9.750 to place third.

Draper scored a career high 9.825 and took first place on bars to help the Cougars keep a 95.875 -- 95.850 edge after the second rotation. Lisa Willis was second with a season best 9.725.

BYU also enjoyed success on beam, scoring a season best 48.825 on the event. Kandis Kelly and Dayna Smart scored season highs of 9.875 to tie for first place. Draper was right behind with her other career high, 9.775.

The Cougars took the top five spots on floor to post a 48.825 score on the event. Kacie Capra took first place with a season high 9.825. Willis, Smart, Sierra Jacobs and Alethea Boon all tied for the next four spots at 9.750.

"They had some struggles early on bars, but to their credit they picked it back up and did a nice job on the last two events," Cattermole said.

Utah State took the top two spots in the all-around. Meagan Lewis took first place with a 38.775 and Alex Martin was second at 38.250. The Cougars' Capra was third at 38.050.

BYU will travel to Cedar City next Friday to take on Southern Utah in the Centrum. Start time is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.

PROVO -- After competing on the road for its first two meets, the BYU women's gymnastics team will return home for its home opener February 2 against Utah State in the Smith Fieldhouse. The Cougars are 2-2 on the year.

In their last meet, the Cougars edged Utah State in Logan 193.375 -- 193.275. BYU was down 144.900 -- 144.625 going into its last rotation, beam. The Cougars notched their highest score of the night and took four of the top five spots to win the event and pull out the victory.

Alethea Boon scored a career high 9.825 and tied with Lisa Willis for first place on beam. Willis also took second on floor and Aimee Walker Pond placed first on bars with a 9.800.

Utah State is coming off a third place finish at a tri-team meet at the University of Utah behind the Utes and Southern Utah. The Aggies' Jessica Parenti took second on floor and third in the all-around with a 38.975.

"We're looking to score. Home meets are what its all about," BYU coach Brad Cattermole said. "The girls love it. Having a big crowd and being at home really excites them. They perform well too."

Last year when the two faced off in Provo the Cougars recorded their third highest beam score in school history (49.500) and three current gymnasts scored career highs.

Start time for the meet will be at 7:00 p.m. in the Smith Fieldhouse. A live stats feed will be available on the schedule page of the Women's Gymnastics homepage at byucougars.com.
