The bar rotation saw a standout performance from senior Amelia Knight, a meet-high 9.900 to lead Illinois State by 0.275 through two events.

Beam also saw a senior lead the way as Ruthuja Nataraj recorded a season-high 9.875 to claim the title.

The afternoon ended on floor where fifth-year senior Emmalise Nock tied her Illinois high of 9.900.
