Honestly, I was fairly disappointed in UCLA last year.
They had a lot of problems.
But in 2009 they look like the big name team with the best potential for the future. Rookies going 1-2-3 in the All-around against Cal. Amazing.
A trio of freshmen led the way for the Bruins, sweeping the all-around standings with a 1-2-3 finish. Aisha Gerber totaled a career-high 39.55, UCLA’s highest all-around mark so far this season, to capture her first all-around win. Vanessa Zamarripa was not far behind, scoring a career-best 39.5 to place second. In third place was Elyse Hopfner-Hibbs, who scored 39.45. …
UCLA Breaks 197 Barrier In 197.125-190.575 Win Over California
Two are Canadian. And everyone remembers what Canadians Kate Richardson and Yvonne Tousek did for UCLA in the past.
Only a fool would bet against Georgia in the NCAA Championships 2009. If Courtney Kupets is healthy, they will win.
But for 2010 … my early pick is the UCLA Bruins.

I am totally loving watching UCLA, having our Canadian girls in there certainly helps, but overall they are so much fun to watch. Thank goodness for the free streaming.
…and yes, I think they’ll win.
I actually live in LA now, and haven’t been to see them yet. Planning to attend Georgia vs. UCLA on March 9th. Looking forward to it
UCLA has a great team. it is pretty cool that there are 3 Canadians on the team. I love Elyes’s new floor routine and have also thought her beam routine is one of the best out there. Aerial layout layout is such a cool tumbling line for beam and very original.
