The GIST: No. 1 Oklahoma cemented its status as the country’s top team by defeating No. 2 LSU, No. 4 Utah, and No. 6 Cal in this weekend’s star-studded Sprouts Collegiate Quad. Oklahoma has been the most dominant team in college gymnastics with six national titles in the last decade, and after this weekend’s showing, they look poised to win another.

How it works: Before we get into the Sooners’ dominance, here’s a quick refresher on NCAA gymnastics. Gymnastics competes in a “meet system” where each team participates in 10-12 competitions per season, primarily against conference opponents.

  • At the end of the season, the top 36 teams qualify for regionals based on National Qualifying Scores (NQS), which are calculated using each team’s top six scores of the season, including at least three from away meets. The top two teams from each regional then advance to nationals.

Sprouts Collegiate Quad details: Oklahoma really is that girl. As mentioned, the Sooners topped three other ranked opponents in what many in the gymnastics world are calling the “meet of the year.”

  • OU’s Jordan Bowers claimed the all-around title while defending national champion, fellow Sooner, and beam queen, Faith Torrez took first in her signature event.
  • The Sooners will look to maintain their momentum heading into an SEC meet with Missouri next weekend.
