Utah, Oklahoma, UCLA, Missouri Reach NCAA Gymnastics Final Four

The NCAA women’s gymnastics championship will see Oklahoma, Utah, UCLA, and Missouri compete for the national title after a dramatic semifinal round. Defending champion LSU and powerhouse Florida were both eliminated, making way for Missouri’s first-ever appearance in the final, secured by Helen Hu’s standout beam routine. Utah rallied from last place in its semifinal, led by senior Grace McCallum, to win the session and earn its fifth consecutive Final Four berth. UCLA advanced with strong performances, including a clutch beam routine from Emma Malabuyo, while Oklahoma and Missouri each secured their spots with consistent team efforts. The competition marks a historic shake-up, as traditional favorites fell to rising programs, and individual champions emerged from several teams. Saturday’s final promises a contest between well-established programs and newcomers eager to make history.
