NORMAN, Okla. - The back-to-back Big 12 champion OU women's gymnastics team began mandatory practices on Friday in preparation for the 2010 season.
The Sooners are training at an off-campus location, with construction of the state-of-the-art Sam Viersen OU Gymnastics Center set to be completed in January.
Oklahoma returns 11 gymnasts from last year's squad including 2009 All-American Megan Ferguson. Ferguson also shared the bars and beam title at the 2009 conference championship, becoming the first gymnast in Big 12 history to win a pair of titles during a freshman campaign.
Seven different gymnasts on the current roster have won an event title during their OU career, including nine by Hollie Vise a year ago, the most of any returner.
Other returners include Candace Cindell, Jackie Flanery, Natasha Kelley, Julie Kramer, Mary Mantle, Natalie Ratcliff, Melanie Root, Kristin Smith and Sara Stone.
