The University of Minnesota men's gymnastics team held its first intrasquad scrimmage of the season on Friday at Cooke Hall.
The team was broken down into the Maroon and Gold squads with each gymnast showcasing his talents in what was one of the Gophers final tune-ups before the regular season gets underway.
The scrimmage proved to be successful for both sides with the Maroon team narrowly coming out on top with a team score of 257.8, beating out the Gold team's score of 254.8.
Overall, the Gophers looked to be in solid form and everyone on the team seemed to be feeling good about the effort that was displayed.
"I was really pleased with how the guys performed this afternoon," Minnesota head coach Mike Burns said. "This is the best we have looked at this point in the season in terms of hitting routines, and overall we just looked confident, solid, and ready for the season to get underway."
