UCLA Earns Top Seed at Pac-12 Championships
March 13, 2017 | Gymnastics
The No. 3-ranked UCLA Gymnastics team will enter Saturday's Pac-12 Gymnastics Championships at Stanford as the top seed. The Bruins will compete in Session 2 of the Championships along with No. 2 seed Utah, No. 3 seed Oregon State and No. 4 seed Washington. Competition begins on March 18 at 6:00 pm in Maples Pavilion.
Competing in Session 1 at 1:00 pm will be No. 5 seed California, No. 6 seed Arizona, No. 7 seed Stanford and No. 8 seed Arizona State. Both sessions will be televised live on Pac-12 Networks.
As the top seed, UCLA has chosen to start the meet on vault and end on floor exercise, giving the Bruins Olympic order, which they also had last season en route to winning its 17th Pac-12 title. Utah chose to start on uneven bars, Oregon State chose to begin on floor exercise, and Washington will start on balance beam. In Session 1, California starts on vault, Arizona on beam, Stanford on bars and Arizona State on floor.
UCLA has won a conference-best 17 Pac-12 team titles and 88 individual titles in 30 years. Along with the Bruins winning the team titles in 2016, JaNay Honest won a share of the uneven bars crown, and Danusia Francis won a share of the balance beam title.
