Utah gymnast Abby Brenner wants her floor score to be so low, compared to her teammates, it is forgotten, eliminated, tossed out and thrown in the trash like a worn grip.
Moving Brenner into the leadoff spot looks like one of coach Tom Farden’s best decisions since she uses her experience and savviness to do a remarkable job of selling her routine too. As a member of Utah’s “six-pack” of senior leaders, her score is a challenge for opponents and teammates alike. Often it is the anchors that get most of the praise and attention, but Brenner knows how important her role is and thrives in it.
Brenner’s presence is good for the Utes in itself, but the impact is heightened by the contrasting style of Jaylene Gilstrap, who follows Brenner’s exuberant routine with a more classical one. “Abby’s confidence carries through the rest of the lineup and makes you want to give it your all,” Gilstrap said. “When we have a good start, we know we are just going up from there.”
