Title: Gymnastics Advances to Super Six Team Final After Winning NCAA Semifinal Session Post by: pmull on April 15, 2011, 10:41:40 PM CLEVELAND - The No. 1 seeded Alabama gymnastics team posted the highest score of either semifinal session on day one of the NCAA Championships being held in the Wolstein Center on the Cleveland State campus this weekend and advanced to Saturday's NCAA Super Six Team Final.
"There is so much - individual pressure, team pressure - hanging over everyone's head," UA head coach Sarah Patterson said. "Our goal at the University of Alabama is to always be on the floor the last night of the season and to have an opportunity to compete for a national championship. I think that for us, being in that position as we are again this year, and having that opportunity ... it never gets old and we never take it for granted." The Crimson Tide posted a 197.050 to win its session while Nebraska was second with a 196.850 and Utah was third with a 196.200. Florida, ranked No. 1 through the regular season, finished just a fraction behind the Utes with a 196.125 while Oregon State took fifth with a 196.100. Host school Kent State finished sixth with a 195.000. http://www.rolltide.com/sports/w-gym/recaps/041511aaa.html Title: Re: Gymnastics Advances to Super Six Team Final After Winning NCAA Semifinal Session Post by: #1Tidefan on April 16, 2011, 12:55:29 AM Quote Alabama was the only Southeastern Conference team to advance to the Super Six, which means for the first time since 1982, only one SEC school will finish among the nation's top-6 teams. The Tide has finished in the top-6 at nationals 27 of the last 29 years. RTRx2!
