Host Stanford will be the favourites to win at home.
(I said the same thing about hosts Georgia at home in Athens.)
But the Men’s competition — using modified FIG rules — is far more competitive. Any team that hits Pommels will be in the running. Any team that starts counting falls, could lose the meet.
It was thrilling in Penn State last year where I thought any of 8 different teams might have won. And it will be thrilling in San Jose.
I’ll be there reporting live.
The nation’s top ranked collegiate men’s gymnastics teams are set to compete April 17-19 at the 66th Annual National Collegiate Men’s Gymnastics Championships at Stanford University’s Maples Pavilion. The excitement of collegiate men’s gymnastics returns to the Bay Area for the first time in a decade as the nation’s best compete for team and individual championships.
Participating teams will be announced on April 8.
Very cool “quick edit” commercial for the meet is well worth watching. Click PLAY or ya dee da on YouTube.
Is gymnastics a cool sport, or what!
