COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Southeast Missouri State University's gymnastics team turned in an impressive score Sunday but the Otahkians came up short during a dual-meet loss at the University of Missouri.
The Tigers posted their second-highest all-time mark of 196.500 to defeat the Otahkians, who scored a season-high 194.300. It was Southeast's 10th-highest score in school history.
Southeast, which won a quadrangular meet on the road to open the season and then beat visiting Bowling Green Friday night, suffered its first loss. The Otahkians are 4-1.
In addition to having their second-best team score ever, Missouri set school records on the floor exercise (49.400) and balance beam (49.275).
No Southeast individual results were available.
The Otahkians return to action Friday, hosting Hamline at 7 p.m.
