Following a three week road swing, the No. 29 BYU gymnasts return home Friday, March 9, 2007, to host No. 10 Oregon State and Utah State in a triangular meet.

The Cougars are coming off a 194.700 mark at Southern Utah Feb. 26 in which they posted season-best team performances on floor and vault.

They also boast the No. 10-ranked beam team in the country, led by junior captain Dayna Smart.

Oregon State has scored over 196.000 for three weeks in a row. The Beavers are perennially ranked in the NCAA's Top 20, and are led this year by All-American Tasha Smith.

Utah State are coming off a 194.525 against Alaska-Anchorage. When BYU and Utah State met in Logan in January, the Cougars defeated the Aggies 195.475 to 193.800.

BYU will get a boost from the return of top bars performer Kylee Draper, who has been recovering from a foot injury since January. However, they will miss senior Kacie Capra Callens, who is out with an ankle injury.

Start time is set for 7 p.m. in the Smith Fieldhouse.
