Great score for the Gymnastics team
Highest score in the nation this year, higher score than any UCLA had last year, and would’ve been good enough to win the NCAA championship two years ago.
And they're not even peaking yet
Zamarripa still hasn’t performed on the floor, so we’ll only get better once she starts competing in the all-around. Also, some of the bars routines are “watered down” and some more difficult releases will be added as the season goes on. Miss Val is trying to keep her athletes fresh and healthy so that they’ll all be in top form when it matters most.
Also, Mattie Larson is still getting over some of her freshman jitters, so once she settles down a bit, she’ll be pretty special. Our entire vault lineup is pretty much a guaranteed 9.85+ if we stick, and probably 3 of them (Zam, Tauny, Olivia) are pretty much a 9.9+ any time they perform.
