This season, OCU has produced an average score of 87.26 through five performances. The Stars collected their top score of the season of 92.75 in the Friends Day of Duals on Jan. 24 in Wichita, Kan. OCU has posted scores of 90 points or better twice this season.
"We have come in with a different mindset and worked together to make adjustments and take our routine to another level," Oklahoma City coach Tasha Hinex said.
