Ladies, Start Your Engines

    Women’s Collegiate Gymnastics begun in full force this past weekend.  Over 30 teams took the floor for their 2010 Season Openers.

     The No.1 Georgia Gym Dogs just squeezed out a win in front of over 10,000 screaming fans against No.7 Stanford, 195.150-195.050.

It looks like UCLA (No.5) means business this season after putting up five scores over 9.9 and fifteen over 9.8.  The Bruins’ outstanding performance resulted in a win over No.2 Utah, 196.600-195.125.

The biggest upset of the weekend was the outcome of the Oklahoma (No.9) v. Florida (No.4) competition.  The Sooners fought for every tenth and it proved to be energy well spent when they topped the Gators 196.250-195.275.
