Host Georgia, Utah and Stanford qualify to the Super 6 Friday night. Congratulations.
Right from the start you had the feeling that Utah and Georgia were not to be denied. That it might end up being a fight between rivals Stanford and UCLA for the third and final spot into the Super 6.
Stanford looked relaxed. Had the best team spirit in the gym. And the Cardinal went with smart, clean routines that judges find difficult to deduct.
UCLA in the first rotation rocked bars for a season high score. But in the second rotation on beam Jordan Schwikert had a fall after a delayed judging discussion resulted in a low score for Niki Tom.

At the press conference following the competition Georgia coach Suzanne Yoculan reminded all that her team had had a “peak performance” in qualifying. There is not much more that her lineup can do to improve. They had only 3 small mistakes in prelims.
No one should assume that Georgia has this competition won. Remember what happened to Stanford at the Men’s NCAA Championships last weekend.
I think it will come down to who sticks the most landings between Florida, Utah and Georgia, assuming they each have a “peak performance” meet.
And would be quite happy to have Alabama or one of the other teams prove me wrong.
