Using Bivalent Integer Programming to Select Teams for Intercollegiate Women's Gymnastics Competition

The coach of an intercollegiate women's gymnastics team must choose a lineup to maximize the potential total team score by optimally assigning gymnasts to the different events. Manual computation of total scores possible from several lineups is burdensome. A bivalent integer programming formulation was used to establish the competitive lineup for intercollegiate matches at Utah State.
