Oklahoma wins NCAA women's gymnastics championship for fourth time in five years

Team USA 2008 Beijing Olympics gold medalist Shawn Johnson speaks to Fox News Digital about her expectations for the 2028 team in Los Angeles and what it might look like if Simone Biles doesn't compete.

University of Oklahoma gymnastics star Faith Torrez came up with a clutch championship-winning routine for her team in the NCAA championships Saturday, extending the program's dynasty.

Torrez nailed the final routine on the floor exercise as the last competitor on the final rotation to put the Sooners ahead for their fourth championship in five years. It was the last routine of her college career.

Torrez scored a 9.950 to give the Sooners a team total of 198.1625, just ahead of LSU at 198.0750. 

Florida was third, while Minnesota closed the best season in program history by finishing fourth.

"It means everything. I’m so proud of this team," Torrez said after winning the NCAA all-around title Thursday. "To do it with them, I wouldn’t want to do it with anyone else."

LSU initially surged to the front through three rotations thanks in part to a perfect 10 on the vault by Kailin Chio, the first perfect score awarded at the national championships since 2023.

The Tigers finished on the balance beam while the Sooners went to the floor exercise. At NCAA competitions, six gymnasts compete in each event, with the lowest score being dropped, and the top five scores added together to produce the team total.
