OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. – The UT Tyler STUNT team kicked off its final tournament of the season this weekend by splitting a pair of games Saturday at the Oklahoma City University Abe Lemons Arena.
 
The Patriots posted their highest score of the season with a 14-0 shutout victory over Missouri Baptist. In Saturday's second game, UT Tyler rallied from a 5-1 halftime deficit against Southwest Baptist, scoring a point in the third quarter before posting a 3-0 margin in the final round of the fourth quarter of an 8-5 defeat to the Bearcats.
 
UT Tyler now has a 2-5 record for the 2021 season and will continue play tomorrow at the Oklahoma City University Tournament.
 
STUNT is a head-to-head competition between two teams. STUNT is the fastest growing female sport at the collegiate and high school level. Teams perform the same routines against the opposing team, and scores are based purely on execution. Each contest features four quarters. The teams showcase different disciplines each quarter – partner stunts in the first quarter, pyramids and tosses in the second period, jumps and tumbling in the third and a team routine in the fourth.
