NCAA Gymnastics Championships 2022 Preview
Suni Lee won gold in the all-around in the 2021 Tokyo games, and she will not look to help Auburn make a splash at the NCAA championships.
Auburn will compete with Alabama, Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Utah for the team title. Lee’s Olympic teammate, Grace McCallum, competes for Utah.
Individual entrants for the NCAA championships include Olympians Jade Carey of Oregon State and Jordan Chiles of UCLA. Carey has a 39.79 national qualifying score in all-around from regionals going into NCAA championships. Chiles will compete in floor exercises and bars.
Michigan seeks a second-straight team national title while Oklahoma comes in as the No. 1 ranked team in the nation. The Sooners have national championship aspirations after placing second last year.
“This is the seventh season we’ve been the No. 1 team in the nation at the end of the regular season. We have done the work. We have put in the practice,” Sooners head coach K.J. Kindler said via Sports Illustrated’s All Sooners. “We have definitely had a successful competitive season. So now, here making the final eight, we don’t take that for granted. It’s hard to do every year.”
Florida’s regional score of 198.775, third-best in NCAA history, has the Gators on the radar for a title. The Gators could also field the individual all-round winner in Trinity Thomas, who scored a 39.90 in regional competition.
“I really wanted to come out and prove to myself that I could come back stronger than last season,” Thomas said according to Dante Green of the York Dispatch. “Last year was a bummer and I wanted to show myself I was capable of more. I’m honestly really proud of myself.”
Florida also has Leanne Wong, who ranks ninth in all-around and sixth in bars coming into the championships. She notably has a high score of 39.875 in all-around from the regional final.
Michigan has third-ranked Sierra Brooks in the all-around. She posted a high score of 39.725 during the season.
The Wolverines also have Natalie Wojcik, who won the 2022 American Athletic Incorporated Award, known as the “Heisman Trophy of women’s gymnastics” according to MLive.com’s Ryan Zuke.
Oklahoma has the top-ranked vault participant, Jordan Bowers, in a tie with Thomas. Bowers has a NQS of 9.956 in the event as does Thomas. Both have hit perfect 10s this season for high scores.
The Sooners also have Audrey Davis, who ranked second in bars — tied with McCallum and Carey. Davis has a NQS of 9.955.
Ragan Smith also ranks at the top for Oklahoma in the balance beam. She has a 9.98 NQS in a tie with Lee.
Minnesota has Mya Hooten, who ranks second in the floor with a 9.97 NQS. Thomas ranks first at 9.98.
