Bless us all in this time of overstimulation.
We’ll start with the day sessions for the lower-ranked teams in their various conferences.
Up first, Penn State, Ohio State, and Iowa are still potentially in the mix for regional seedings, but we won’t know if they actually are until we get the results for Cal, Clemson, and Auburn later. So still kind of blind there. More of the details here.
Pitt’s result in ACC session 1 is the most pressing because they have a clear Make It Or Break It: 195.650 and they’re definitely in.
SEC Session 1 is mostly for Rivalry Grrrr Things, but there are still a lot of regional seeding moving parts that these scores will have significant influence on. We just won’t really be able to parse that until everything is over. Because there’s a bye rotation at this one again (sigh), I like the desktop version of virtius since you can clearly see the rotations and who’s on a bye when.
Meanwhile the scores for Big Tens are coming in via raven.
Day Sessions

After 3
Iowa 147.475
Ohio State 147.350
Penn State 146.875
Maryland 146.325
A rotation of surviving. Iowa got 48ed on vault but Ohio State was pretty 9.7s on bars so couldn’t re-take the lead. As was Penn State on beam to stay further back, but they do get to finish on floor.
My broadcast has been almost exclusively local commercials for rehab “spas” which feels very accurate for college gymnastics.
Rotation 4

Reade – VT – Maryland – yfull, step back, clearly her
Turner – UB – Iowa – nice position on m,aloney to pak – DLO, a little whippy but a good stick
Misiura – FX – Penn St – wolf double, around – front 2/1, good height, clearer rotation than most of them today – front lay to front full holds onto it
Smith – BB – Ohio St – wolf double is comfortably done – kickover, a little slow into bhs but will get it, maybe with a rhythm deduction – just a little tight in straddles – gainer full, stuck
Schriever – UB – Iowa – maloney to pak, good height – van leeuwen, hit – shome short hs – toe pike 1/2 dmt, hop back

Mendez-Abolnik – VT – Maryland – y1.5 hit, hop to the side, some knees
Tran – UB – Iowa – good first hs – maloney to pak, legs together well – nice hs on low – van leeuwen, hit – DLO, stuck. Excellent.
Liv is confused by Vetter’s 9.650 score but she didn’t see the broken leap connection.
Kramer – FX – front 2/1, nice control – realllly struggles with the tour jete 1/2 into wolf fulls, out of control and doesn’t get to position – rudi to loso is quite nice.
So we’ll wait on the scores to see what happened in this meet.
Tran goes 9.950 on bars to finish for Iowa with 196.700.
McCann – BB – Ohio St – falls on layout 2 foot series
FINAL
Iowa 196.700
Ohio State 196.250
Penn State 196.000
Maryland 195.300
Unlikely to hold up but a very good score for Iowa. Not enough to move ahead of Ohio State in the rankings, but Penn State falls behind both Ohio State and Iowa. Good sign for Kentucky that Ohio State and Penn State didn’t get huge bumbers.
Pitt goes 48.700 on bars, which could be a problem as they typically rely on bars to be a number. They now need to get on 49.0 pace and quickly. It has to be a good vault day.
Moving on to SEC session 1.
Pitt opened vault with a 9.725 yfull from Pratt, Bobek follows with more distance on her yfull, hop back, slight leg sep on block. Duke bounce back yfull in the third spot.
Love that the SEC champs has to explain what a bye rotation is. I’m old enough to remember the 7-team SEC champs with three byes that no one was allowed to watch live.
Prejean falls on double front bars dismount so North Carolina will have to count 9.550 for Seabrooks.
Rotation 1 – Georgia on bye

Macpherson – UB – Missouri – tkatchev, hit, flexed feet – good hs on high – toe on to bail, legs together well, a little hip angle – solid js on high – FTDT, small hop to the side. 9.800

Klein lands short on y1.5 for Arkansas with step back. 9.750
Gardner – FX – Kentucky – DLO, very high, bounce back out of control – switch side 1/2 to wolf full, under position on wolf – front tuck through to double tuck. pulls it out, under control – pike 1/2 shushunova. 9.825
Horton – UB – Missouri – shaposh to pak, good legs on pak – better vertical than most on 1/2 turn on low – hits hs on high – DLO, struggles to try to control the stick, ends up with big arm circle and lean forward. 9.750
Hagle – BB – Auburn – aerial to bhs, good knee position on aerial, well connected – side aerial, holds it – split to stag ring to korbut, I like it, not super ringed on the stag ring but I’m into the combo – gainer pike, stick. 9.800
Rodriguez FX Kentucky – front 2/1 to layout, good – switch side to wolf full – double tuck, big bounce back – back 1.5 to 1/2 to straddle, good control

Irvine – BB – Auburn – kickover and falls trying to connect out of it
Price – VT – Arkansas – y1.5, good one, little hop forward. 9.925
Every time they say “Baby Gigi” I think they’re going to say “Baby Jesus.” That’s the new recruiting strategy. You won’t stop hashtagging Jesus? Well, we have Baby Jesus on our teammmmmmmm
Neal – BB – Auburn – bhs loso loso, solid – switch, wobbles before split jump, breaks the combo – 1.5, leans to hold. 9.500 with mostly 9.7 SVs for no dance combo.
After 1
Missouri 49.275
Kentucky 49.175
Arkansas 49.150
Auburn 48.025
Not a great first rotation overall. Everyone except Kimarra Echols has lost their minds. Kentucky could pass Auburn in the rankings with a result here, and they’re on pace to do it. But they also have to stay ahead of Ohio State.

Bartman – FX – Auburn – back 1.5 to front lay, hit, a little low of amplitude on layout so arches it – switch side 1/2 to straddle, I think was fine but we cut in between because leaps aren’t real. Today’s judges are like, “I AGREE!” – wolf double, hit – double pike, bounce back
Gardner – VT – Kentucky – hs pike 1/2 bounce back, a little short with chest down but solid
Wahl – UB – Georgia – good hs – toe on to maloney to pak, nice height – small leg sep – 1/2 turn on low, a little past – good hs on high – DLO, nice stick

Reingold – UB – Georgia – blind to very strong piked jaeger – pak, legs together solidly – sticks DLO. 9.925
Opening fall for Pitt on beam.
Cashion – VT – Kentucky – handspring pike 1/2, good landing, chest down but secure
Macpherson – BB – Missouri – switch to split, hit – bhs bhs loso, wobble but holds onto it, lean to the side waver – full turn – standing loso, squeezes to hold it – 1.5 dismont, stuck. 9.850
