    After falling to Iowa last weekend on the road, UIC rebounded nicely at home by scoring season-high team scores on the floor, pommel horse, vault and high bar against Temple.

    The Flames claimed the top spot in every event, with Alex Kadar winning the floor exercise (14.050), David Mohr on pommel horse (14.350), Nikolai Korepanov on the rings (15.300), Nick Persino on the vault (15.500), Neal Thompson on the parallel bars (13.950) and Kevin Baune on the high bar (14.400) to cap off a successful evening for UIC.
