Ten Things to Know

2024 marks UNC's first season in the Atlantic Coast Conference. The ACC previously sponsored a conference championship for gymnastics in 1984.
Friday will be the first nationally-televised meet held at Carmichael Arena in program history. It will be UNC's third meet on ACC Network this season.
Camryn Rueda was recently named UNC's first ACC Newcomer of the Week on Feb. 12 after setting a career-high 9.875 on floor at NC State.
Not only was Rueda's 9.875 the highest score on floor among all conference freshmen in week six, it was the highest score recorded on any event by any ACC rookie.
Lali Dekanoidze earned the ACC's first-ever ACC Gymnast of the Week honor on Jan. 9 after a career-high 9.925 on vault in the season opener.
Dekanoidze's 9.925 on vault and 9.9 on bars are both tied for the second highest scores in the conference.
Isabelle Schaefer became UNC's first-ever ACC Specialist of the Week on Jan. 15 after matching her career-high 9.925 on bars at the ESPN Collegiate Quad.
Schaefer's 9.925 (done twice) is tied for the highest score on bars in the ACC so far this season heading into week seven.
Taylor Schulze matched her career-high 9.9 on beam on Feb. 2, which is tied for the highest score on the event in the league thus far.
In their first meeting with Pitt on Feb. 2, Julia Knower won the ninth all-around (39.15) title of her career. Dekanoidze tied for first on bars (9.825) while Schulze was the outright winner on beam (9.9).
