No. 5 Alabama Gymnastics Wins NCAA Seattle Regional Semifinal, Advances to Saturday Final

The Crimson Tide has now advanced to the regional final every year of the current format

The No. 5 Alabama gymnastics team started its semifinal session of the NCAA Seattle Regional Championships off strong and never looked back, easily winning the session with a 197.900 to advance to Saturday's regional final.

The Crimson Tide ended Thursday's session on the balance beam for the second meet in a row and once again came away with a stellar rotation, going 49.450 paced by Shallon Olsen's 9.950, which tied her career-best mark.

With Alabama and Michigan State (197.325) advancing from the first semifinal, the remainder of Saturday's regional final will be comprised of the top-two finishes from Thursday night's second semifinal session that will feature Utah, Oregon State, Illinois and Stanford. Host Washington finished third in the first semifinal with a 197.175, while BYU took fourth after posting a 196.625.

Alabama opened the meet with a 49.500 on the floor exercise led by back-to-back 9.95s from Lilly Hudson and Lexi Graber. The Tide continued to roll on the vault, totaling a 49.400 behind Olsen's career-best 9.950.

Led by a 9.95 in the leadoff spot from Mati Waligora, Alabama posted a 49.550 on the uneven bars, a rotation that saw the other five members of the lineup score matching 9.900s.

Olsen posted the session's top score on the vault and beam, Waligora had the top uneven bars mark and Hudson and Graber led the way on the floor exercise. Hudson was second in the all-around with a 39.500.

Alabama Head Coach Dana Duckworth Said
"Incredibly proud of staying in the Bama Bubble, hitting 24-for-24 and knowing there is more in the tank. The goal was to start strong, stay strong and finish strong and we did just that. We built momentum on every event. With some of our challenges coming into this week, I was so impressed with the way our ladies rallied together, stayed mentally tough and had fun in the process. Now we rest, recover and prepare to do it again."

No. 5 Alabama Gymnastics is Ft. Worth Bound After Huge 198.175 Score at Seattle Regional

The No. 5-ranked Alabama gymnastics team is headed to Ft. Worth, Texas for the 2022 NCAA Championships Semifinals after punching its ticket with a 198.175 in the finals of the NCAA Seattle Regional Championships Saturday night in Alaska Airline Arena on the University of Washington campus.

It was the second-highest score in school history and the highest in postseason competition. Utah edged the Tide with a 198.200 and will also advance to the national semifinals. Michigan State was third (197.650) and Stanford took fourth (197.250) to round out the regional final.

Alabama got the evening off to a strong start with a 49.500 on the vault paced by 9.950s from Kaylee Quinn and Lilly Hudson. On the uneven bars, UA tallied a 49.400, boosted by a 9.950 from Makarri Doggette.

The Tide roared through its final two rotations to clinch its bid. Alabama scored a 49.625 after matching career-best 9.95s from Ella Burgess, Shania Adams and Hudson. With a bid to the NCAA semifinals on the line, Alabama continued its march to Ft. Worth with a huge 49.650 on the floor exercise led by 9.950s from Emily Gaskins and Lexi Graber.

Head Coach Dana Duckworth Said
"I'm so incredibly proud of their fight tonight, they never gave up, they never looked back. They were fierce, they were intense and they were warriors on every single event. I'm especially thrilled with the way we closed the meet on beam and floor tonight. Those rotations were extraordinary. Our ladies came to play this week, they came to earn their spot in Ft. Worth, and that's just what they did."

They're doing that with arguably the 2 best gymnasts on their roster doing only 1 event each due to them nursing injuries...Blanco and Doggette. They did the event that has the least impact on your legs...the bars.
They may be better in time for the semis to compete all-around again. But honestly, would you mess with this lineup if you were Dana and you were 1 of only 4 teams that put up 198+ in the entire NCAA Regional Finals today?


The goal is to get to the Final 4 Championship, and it looks like Oklahoma, Florida, Alabama and Utah right now.

198.250 is the min score someone will need to win the show.

But we are peaking

The Crimson Tide will compete in the first of the two semifinal sessions on Thursday, April 14 at Dickies Arena and will begin the night on the uneven bars

On Saturday night, Alabama gymnastics punched its ticket for the NCAA Championships final site in Ft. Worth, Texas, as one of the top-two teams at the Seattle Regional Finals.

Florida, Michigan, Auburn and Missouri will compete in the second semifinal, which will get underway at 5 p.m. CT.

The top-two teams from each semifinal session will advance to the championship finals on Saturday, April 16 at 12 p.m. In addition to serving as the gateway to the championships' team finals, the two semifinal sessions will determine the individual champions on the four apparatus and the all-around.

Both of Thursday's semifinal sessions will be broadcast live on ESPN2, while the championship finals will be live on ABC.
