Gymnastics

Chiles has won 13 career conference gymnast of the week awards.

UCLA senior Jordan Chiles was selected the Big Ten Gymnast of the Week for the second consecutive week after posting a 39.575 all-around score at the Sprouts Farmers Market Collegiate Quad, the highest all-around total in the conference last week.

Chiles earned UCLA's top marks on three of four events. She tied for first place on floor exercise with a 9.925, picking up her sixth individual title of the short season. She also scored 9.900 on vault and uneven bars and 9.850 on balance beam and has scored 9.900 or higher on seven of her eight routines this year. Her marks helped the Bruins record a season-best team total of 197.000, as well as season-best marks on vault (49.275), bars (49.425) and floor (49.175). She remains ranked No. 1 in the all-around with a season average of 39.650 and is ranked in the Top 10 on floor (No. 6) and vault (No. 10).

This is Chiles' 13th career conference gymnast of the week award and eighth in the Big Ten.
