NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S GYMNASTICS CHAMPIONSHIPS 2018 Championship 2 History 3 All-Time Team Results 14 2018 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Oklahoma's fourth national title makes history: The Sooners clinched their fourth consecutive championship title with a 414.858 first-place finish at the UIC Pavilion in Chicago on April 21, 2018. Oklahoma became just the third program in history to win at least four consecutive national titles (Illinois from 1939 to 1942 and Nebraska from 1979 to 1982). The title is also the Sooners’ 12th overall – tying them with Penn State for most in NCAA history – and the ninth of head coach Mark Williams’ 19-year tenure. Sooner standout, Yul Moldauer, was sensational, becoming the first Oklahoma gymnast to win four individual national titles in one year (floor, vault, parallel bars, all-around). The junior has made his mark posting seven career titles, a program best. Oklahoma defeated Minnesota (411.923), Illinois (411.689), Stanford (408.725), Nebraska (403.589) and Penn State (401.991) in Saturday’s final. The runner-up finish is the best finish for Minnesota since 1990. The Gophers hit on every routine and had 11 named All-Americans, which is a school record. Stanford has maintained a top-5 finish every season since 2006. Moldauer finished first in floor with a score of 15.166, trailed by Illinois’ Sebastian Quiana and Michigan’s Jacob Moore who tied for second with a score of 14.366. Penn State’s Stephen Nedoroscik dominated pommel earning a 14.666, followed by Moldauer’s 14.533 mark. The Nittany Lion sophomore is now a two-time pommel horse national champion. Rings was a close call with Alex Diab, an Illini, tallying a 14.500 score. The title gives Diab 10 rings titles on the season, which is the most in a season in school history. The junior is also now tied for the second most rings titles in a career (20). The Illini out-beat Oklahoma’s Moldauer who posted a 14.433. Oklahoma’s Moldauer and Tannner Justus dominated vault competition claiming first (14.900) and second (14.800), respectively. Justus earned the first All- America honor of his career with this finish. It was in the horizontal bar that Stanford took control, claiming first and second with senior Robert Neff and junior Grant Breckenridge. In parallel bars, Moldauer came out on top scoring 14.733, which was a small margin ahead of Illinois’ Johnny Jacobson who earned a 14.666, a season best that earned him All-American for the event. 4.
