Not many of the finalists hit their routines as well as they had done to qualify. When looking at scores, know that College judging is more lenient than FIG international.

More than anything I was impressed with these guys still getting psyched up for the Final. It’s been a long, tough season. Many are hurting. Kanji Oyama took the Bronze on Vault, but wasn’t able to walk down off the podium. For example.

See you in 2016.

Sean won Vault with this. But what you really need to see is his triple twisting Yurchenko from warm-up. The best ever done on to competition mats, I’d say.

John Orozco posted that. The Men’s National Team is having a training camp at OU.

DWIGHT NORMILE:

Competing before a home crowd of 2,560 at the Lloyd Noble Center, the Sooners’ victory was an emphatic exclamation point on an incredible, undefeated season.
