CEDAR CITY, Utah – The Southern Utah gymnastics team and head coach Scotty Bauman have announced the signing of three all-around gymnasts, Brylee Haws, Chloe Tart, and Sarah Torres, who will join the Flippin' Birds for the 2027-28 season.
"We are thrilled to welcome Brylee, Chloe, and Sarah to the Flippin' Birds family. All three are all-around gymnasts with clean, high-level gymnastics and the work ethic that fits our culture. Brylee brings unique skills on beam and floor, Chloe has kept climbing every year at regionals, and Sarah is a strong all-around competitor from a great Georgia All-Stars program. As we take this program into the Pac-12, these are exactly the kind of athletes we want building our future."
The class arrives at a high point for the program. Southern Utah has won four consecutive conference championships, including the 2023 MRGC title and MPSF crowns in 2024, 2025 and 2026, and the 2026 Flippin' Birds pushed toward the 197.000 mark on the way to a regional berth. The Thunderbirds open their first season as a Pac-12 gymnastics affiliate this winter.
