Head Coach K.J. Kindler
Opening Statement:
"We are thrilled to be here at the NCAA's for the second-straight year, representing the University of Oklahoma.  First off, we feel very fortunate to have been very, very healthy the entire year and feel as though that has been a big part of why we have been successful this season and last.

On the team's camaraderie:
"The team has really come together this season.  We won the Big 12 Championship for the first time since  2004, which was a tremendous achievement for our team.  They have been a great group to coach and we are excited about what this week holds."

On the team:
"We are working hard to get where we need to be to reach our goals for the season. We have had a couple of rough spots the last couple of meets, but feel that we have had some great practice sessions heading into this week and feel good about where we are at."  

Sophomore Hollie Vise
On her International experience:
"Travelling all over the world, competing on the international level, gave me a lot of experience that can translate to the collegiate level. I have a lot of fun doing collegiate gymnastics which is way more team oriented. "

On her personal goals this week:
"Even though I'm just a sophomore, I feel that I can bring my experience to the table. I hope I can make my scores count and help my team move on to reach our ultimate team goals."
