Week's Achievements:
Rubin turned in another banner performance, helping her team to a record-breaking 195.600 in a home meet against Central Michigan, Feb. 5. Rubin finished with a 9.875 on bars, which was good for first, and a 9.80 on beam, which was good for third. Her bars score was also a career high, and put her in a tie for No. 3 in EMU program history. The junior has turned in three straight incredible meets, notching five scores of 9.8 or better in that timeframe. Two weeks ago, she scored a 9.875 on beam as well, also putting her in a tie for No. 3 in the EMU record books. She has been very consistent this season, with her only missed routine coming in the season opener.
