Kentucky and Oregon State Regional Rotation Orders
VAULT – Oklahoma, UCLA
BARS – Missouri, Utah
BEAM – Ohio State, Alabama
FLOOR – Arkansas, Minnesota

The Kentucky regional mimicked yesterday with the top 2 selectors taking vault and bars, and then Arkansas choosing to start on floor, leaving Ohio State with beam. But Alabama broke with the trend and picked to start on beam, giving Utah bars and then Minnesota floor.

Individually, these are the people who could potentially still take those spots, listed in order of who has priority should they need the spot.

Roberson – BB – Arkansas – beat to pike jump – straddle 1/2 with a check, no connection – switch to back tuck, as her backup routine, secure – side aerial to loso, strong – sticks dmt. 9.950. Roberson getting 9.950 this time, with a literal check and having to do a backup routine with the switch leap they took out so she could get better scores, is the best summary of college gymnastics. The scoring, she don’t make sense.

Estep finishes out meet on floor as Oklahoma cruises.

FINAL
Oklahoma 198.350
Arkansas 197.450
Missouri 197.225
Ohio State 196.700

Arkansas through with Oklahoma, gaining a ton on beam compared to the semifinal. Landings were most of it today. I don’t think Missouri had a deduction-free landing on beam (either movement or leans) or vault and maybe one or two on bars, and when landings are everything, that’s not going to advance.

I’m glad Bridget is asking KJ about how she had a full on-camera heart attack during Fatta’s layout stepout. V important.

Pre-meet lineups have UCLA and Utah keeping things the same, but Minnesota and Alabama making some major changes.

Alabama has Cawley and Matters vaulting instead of LaCoursiere and Kvamee, and Ra-Akbar coming back on beam instead of Birt. Minnesota has Rowray coming in on floor for Steensland and Slevin on beam instead of Pearl.

9.875 and a counting score is interesting. I mean, I know she didn’t give up more than a .05 check on the first aerial, but there’s got to be more consequences for these bigger errors when trying to separate teams.
