Air Force Women’s Gymnastics is set to compete in the 2026 Credit Union 1 Mountain West Championships, with the event scheduled for Saturday at ExtraMile Arena in Boise, Idaho. The competition will begin at 6 p.m. Mountain Time and will be streamed live on the Mountain West Network.

The championship meet marks a significant opportunity for Air Force as it aims to build on its recent successes and secure its first outright conference title. Fans can follow the action online or through various mobile and connected TV platforms via TheMW.com/watch and related apps.

This season, Air Force has achieved several milestones. Junior all-arounder Maggie Slife was named Mountain West Gymnast of the Year for the second consecutive time, while head coach Jennifer Green earned Coach of the Year honors—the program’s first since 2018. Alongside these awards, Slife, senior Kylee Greene, and sophomore Alyssa Bigler accumulated eleven All-Mountain West distinctions this year, tying a program record.

Earlier this month, Air Force clinched a share of its first-ever regular season conference title after defeating San Jose State on March 7. The team also broke its own scoring records multiple times during the season. On March 14 during Senior Night at home, Air Force posted a score of 197.150 against Fisk Bulldogs—a new program and conference record.

Several gymnasts delivered standout performances in that meet: Slife set new career and school records with an all-around score of 39.675; Bigler posted one of the top scores in program history; Greene marked her personal best as well. The Falcons also achieved their highest-ever scores on bars (49.350) and balance beam (49.525), setting both school and Mountain West records.

As they head into Saturday’s championship ranked third in their conference with strong national event rankings—including vault (39th), bars (35th), beam (31st), and floor (33rd)—the Falcons look to cap off their historic season by competing for another milestone achievement.
