Utah rallies from last place to advance to NCAA women’s gymnastics championship meet

Utah , Oklahoma , UCLA and Missouri will compete for the national title Saturday .

The Red Rocks beat UCLA for the third time this season and upset No. 1 LSU , the reigning national champion.

Oklahoma won the afternoon session with a 197.5500 , while Missouri upset Florida .

The 2025 national champion is destined to be either the Sooners , Bruins , Tigers or Red Rocks .

The Red Rocks were praised by many after the meet for competing a complete meet.

But the Red Rocks are much more capable on beam than they demonstrated and will need to be better if they are going to end the 30-year national title drought.

For the second time this season, Utah competed to its real potential on bars and that lineup propelled Utah to victory.

The Red Rocks have struggled many times this season , in the postseason especially, to compete at their best across all four events.

Utah has found a way to not only survive and advance, but also win competitions where that didn't seem possible.

The University of Utah's indefatigable nature put on display again.
