Gym NCAA Release 4-19-12 PAC-10 CONFERENCE PAC-12 CONFERENCE 1350 Treat Blvd., Suite 500, Walnut Creek, CA 94597 // PAC-12.ORG // 925.932.4411 For Immediate Release // Thursday, April 19, 2012 Contact // Natalia Ciccone ([email protected]) Four Pac-12 Gymnastics Teams Compete for Spots in NCAA Super Six WALNUT CREEK, Calif. — Four Pac-12 teams are headed to the 2012 National Collegiate Women’s Gymnastics Championships in Atlanta, Ga., Friday-Sunday, April 20-22. OREGON STATE, STANFORD, UCLA and UTAH earned spots in the competition. In addi- tion, three individuals from Pac-12 teams will compete in speci!c events. Pac-12 Champion UCLA posted the highest score at regionals of any Conference team and was the second-highest in the country, coming in !rst place at Fayetteville. The Utes posted a 196.825 at the Salt Lake City Regional, coming in second. The Beavers were second at the Auburn Regional with a 196.450 and Stanford was second at the Champaign Regional with a score of 196.675. Qualifying for the national competition in the all-around are ARIZONA’s Aubree Cristello (39.250 at the Seattle Regional) and WASH- INGTON’s Aliza Vaccher (39.225 at the Seattle Regional). Wildcat teammate Katie Matusik posted a 9.900 on the balance beam in Seattle and quali!ed on the event for the national competition. HOW THEY QUALIFIED The women’s gymnastics championships consist of 12 teams and 12 all-around competitors (who are not on a qualifying team) and individual event specialists. The top two teams and the top two all-around competitors from each of the six regionals have advanced to the national championships. In addition, the event winners at each regional also advanced to the national championships (in their speci!c event), if they were not part of a qualifying team or an all-around quali!er. ROTATION PAIRINGS The process for determining the rotation pairings for Day 1 of the team competition at the site of the !nals is based on the National Qualifying Score (NQS), calculated by adding the Regional Qualifying Score (RQS) to the score achieved at the regional competition. Once the NQS is calculated, teams are ranked based on the NQS from 1-12. Teams 1, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 12 were placed in Group A, and teams 2, 3, 6, 7, 10 and 11 were placed in Group B. The host team and its corresponding group will compete in the second semi!nal. If there is not a host institution competing, a random drawing will be used to determine which group is placed in semi!nal one or two. ABOUT THE COMPETITION The team semi!nal and all-round competition will be conducted in two sessions on Friday, April 20 at noon and 6 p.m. ET. The top three teams from each semi!nal advance to the Super Six competition on Saturday, April 21 at 4 p.m. ET. The top four individuals in each event (including ties) from Friday’s semi!nals will compete in the individual event competition on Sunday, April 22 at 1 p.m. ET. For more information and to follow the action, visit www.ncaa.com. 2011 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP REVIEW Last year, UCLA scored a 197.375 to place second behind Alabama (197.650) at the NCAA Championships in Cleveland, Ohio.

    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2015 Championship 2 History 4 Brackets 17 2015 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Florida’s McMurtry finishes off triumphant title victory: Alex McMurtry is the youngest member of the Florida gymnastics team. Maybe the 18-year-old isn’t old enough to feel pressure. Maybe she didn’t know she should. On the final rotation Saturday night -- the uneven bars -- Florida needed a 9.95 or better to win its third consecutive NCAA gymnastics title. All McMurtry did was execute her best routine of the season, earning a career-best 9.95 to propel the Gators a final score of 197.850 and the national championship. “I didn’t necessarily know what score I had to get,” McMurtey said. “I think that would have made it even harder for me so I knew I had a job to do and I knew my teammates had my back. Going last is sometimes a good position, sometimes a bad position, and we had five girls hit routines so I knew my teammates had my back and I just had to do my job. It all worked out for me and that was one of the best routines of my career.” “It’s amazing that she came out under this heavy pressure situation as a freshman and performed as well as she did everywhere,” Florida head coach Rhonda Faehn said.“To anchor that bar lineup, to have that fight for every little thing, it’s not only amazing, it speaks volumes for what she will continue to bring to this team in the future, which is exciting.” Faehn had her back to the scoreboard and paid no attention to the other teams competing.

    Gymnastics NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S Highlights Alabama squeezes by Florida, edges Gators, 197.850-197.775, for crown: The 2012 NCAA women’s gymnastics championships came down to the fi nal routine, just as Alabama coach Sarah Patterson expected. Patterson was confi dent because she had senior Ashley Priess set for that last routine. Priess closed Alabama’s decisive balance beam rotation with a 9.950 and the Crimson Tide edged No. 1 seed Florida to win its second consecutive cham- pionship April 21 at the Gwinnett Center in Duluth, Ga.. Alabama won its sixth title by posting a score of 197.850 to beat Florida’s 197.775, giving the Southeastern Conference the top two spots in its Super Six showdown with the Pac-12. Entering the fi nal rotation, Florida led Alabama by only 25-thousandths of a point. The Gators scored a 49.40 on their fi nal routine, the fl oor exercise, and Alabama won with its 49.50 on the beam. ”I realized our scores had matched up with theirs pretty well and it was going to come down to that last routine,” Patterson said. Florida closed its fl oor routine with a 9.925 from all-around champion Kytra Hunter. ”I knew that Ashley was going on the balance beam, and I knew it came down to that routine,” Patterson said. If Priess knew the championship would be decided by her routine, she didn’t show any sign of pressure. ”There really was nothing in my mind that I have to stick this or I really need a good score,” Priess said.

    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2016 Championship 2 History 4 Brackets 17 2016 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Oklahoma Wins Second NCAA Title: The motto for the Oklahoma women’s gymnastics squad this year was to make it count. On Saturday night, the Sooners did just that. With a 197.6750, the No. 1-seeded Sooners secured the 2016 NCAA Championship inside Fort Worth Convention Center. The title was their second all-time, with the first coming in 2014. The Super Six appearance was OU’s sixth in the last seven seasons and in each of those, OU has now finished within the top three nationally. The victory made history in the gymnastics world as Oklahoma became the first school in history to win both the women’s and men’s national titles in the same season. Earlier on Saturday night, the men’s team rolled to the 2016 crown in Columbus, Ohio. “What do you say? One of girls this morning, when she woke up, tweeted, ‘It felt like Christmas Eve last night—I couldn’t go to bed anticipating today,’ It turns out that’s exactly what it was,” 10th-year Oklahoma head coach K.J. Kindler said. “Christmas Day is always a wonderful day when you’re a kid. Today was just an amazing and wonderful day for these ladies and our entire team. They had to fight for it. We learned a lot last year, I think, and they applied it today.” No. 3 seed LSU came in second place with a 197.4500, No. 4 Alabama (197.4375) finished third and No.
