  • Head Coach Mark Williams BOOMER SOONER Norman and Oklahoma City
    A TRADITION AND HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE The University of Oklahoma men’s gymnastics program is based on a foundation and tradition of excellence. That tradition includes eight NCAA team championships, 19 conference championships, seven Nissen-Emery award winners and 231 All Americans. We are led by student-athletes willing to persevere in times of adversity and work hard every day with an unbending will to prepare and succeed. Whether it’s striving for success in the classroom or on the competition floor, we always capitalize on the opportunities in front of us. Through dedication to the schedule and plan, commitment to a refinement of the details and putting action to that preparation, excellent results have followed. From our longtime partnership with Cleveland Elementary School to joining five Sooners at the Olympics in London this summer, it is a privilege and an honor to work with these student-athletes. At Oklahoma, we provide the avenues to reach the highest level. Our team accomplishments in the past 13 years are unprecedented. We take pride in helping student-athletes live their dreams beyond OU, to compete at World Championships, Olympic Games or other international events. Inspiring student-athletes to compete at the highest levels in all that they do – that’s what we aspire to achieve at Oklahoma.
