FINAL
LSU 197.800
Minnesota 196.950
BYU 196.500
Oregon State 196.450

So it’s LSU, Arkansas, Kentucky, and Minnesota for Saturday’s final, all the seeds making it at this one.

Oklahoma, Alabama, Ohio State, and Penn State in the Michigan final that will determine our first two nationl finalists.

In terms of individual land from these regionals, here’s my initial look at where we stand.

Michigan
AA – Gabby Wilson got the top non-Oklahoma AA score, so as long as Oklahoma qualifies a team, she’ll go through for AA.

VT/FX – If Wilson goes through for AA, then Sierra Brooks will go to nationals for vault and floor, again presuming Oklahoma qualifies as a team

UB: Blanco, Bauman, and Takekawa are tied for 2nd behind Bowers, so if Oklahoma and Alabama go, then Bauman and Takekawa are tied to advance, and we need the score sheet to see if counting all four breaks the tie.

BB: If Oklahoma and Alabama go through, then Amani Herring for Penn State will get the beam spot. If Alabama doesn’t go, then it’s Burgess.

Arkansas
AA: Jade Carey won the AA today, so we know she’s through as the AA qualifier for nationals no matter what

VT/FX: Hooten’s 9.975 won the day, so if Minnesota doesn’t go as a team, Hooten has the vault spot. And as long as LSU and Kentucky go through as teams, Hooten will have a floor spot as well. If Kentucky doesn’t make it as a team, then we have a Hooten/Worley tie that would go to Worley on NQS.

UB: Blackson got 9.950 on that bars routine to finish the day, so she has qualified to nationals for bars

BB: Cally Swaney for Arkansas will go unless Arkansas and LSU make it as a team, then we’re looking at a big tie between Brose, Magnelli, Horak, and Sirjord, which would go to Magnelli.
