Six seniors – Erika Aufiero, Silvia Colussi-Pelaez, Madeline Gardiner, Megan Jimenez, Kaytianna McMillanand Taylor Ricci – performed in their final competition for the Beavers performing 15 out of 24 routines.

SEASON ENDS FOR BEAVERS WITH SIXTH PLACE FINISH AT NCAAS

Oklahoma, LSU, Florida

1. Oklahoma- 198.3875
2. LSU- 197.7375
3. Florida- 197.7000
4. UCLA- 197.2625
5. Utah- 196.5875
6. Alabama- 196.0000

I would have been happier with a tie between the Tigers and the Gators. It could have gone either way.

The first rotation of six was a disaster. After that there were many, many highlights.

Overall this was the best NCAA season I can recall. Looking forward to 2018. 🙂

Oklahoma – DYNASTY

Can they match the Kupets Georgia dynasty? I think so.

An incredible historic team performance for the Sooners. The highest score — 198.3875 — in NCAA Super 6 history.

Super 6 in 2017

Lauren Hopkins:

I can’t remember any other NCAA season in which the top six teams set themselves at such a high level that they not only remained firm in the average and RQS rankings all season, but also qualified team by team into the Super Six at NCAA Championships.

This might be boring if the teams weren’t so impressive. Generally there’s usually at least one or two teams outside the top six rankings bubble that can fight their way in, and you actually really want them to, if only to make things more exciting …

London World Cup highlights

Alt and Verniaiev’s performances in London assured their national federations the 2017 FIG World Cup series title in Women’s and Men’s Artistic Gymnastics. The winners of the World Cup series are determined by a points total based on athlete rankings at each of the three World Cup competitions. Verniaiev’s victories in Stuttgart and London, as well as a silver medal finish at the AT&T American Cup in March assured Ukraine would win on the men’s side.

Alt’s victories at the same meet, combined with Kim Bui’s fourth-place finish at the American Cup, lifted the Germans to the Women’s title. Additionally, the three top-ranked athletes in the All-around World Cup standings received prize money between 15-25,000 Swiss Francs.
