Watch Suni Lee of Auburn gymnastics tie her career high on vault with a 9.95

AUBURN — It wasn't a perfect 10 on vault for Suni Lee, but it was darn close to it.

The sophomore tied her career-best mark in the event in the first rotation of Auburn gymnastics' meet against Georgia on Friday with a 9.95. She had previously matched that score earlier this year in a matchup with Arkansas on Jan. 20.

Here's a look at what Lee was able to pull off against the Bulldogs.

Lee, who is in the midst of her final season with the Tigers, helped Auburn top Georgia, 197.55-196.075. She won the all-around title after taking a break on floor and vault in the Tigers' last meet against Missouri on Feb. 19.

The matchup with the Bulldogs was Auburn's penultimate home meet of the season. The Tigers go on the road to take on Kentucky on Friday before closing the regular season at home in Neville Arena against Penn State on March 10.
