LOS ANGELES — With several Sooners stepping into new roles in the lineups, the No. 1 Oklahoma women's gymnastics team did not miss a beat, soaring to a 197.950 to 197.200 road victory over No. 8 UCLA on Sunday afternoon inside Pauley Pavilion.
The Sooners (20-1 overall) posted the highest mark on all four events against the Bruins (6-5 overall) and secured at least a share of the individual crowns on each event. The team score was the second-best of the season for OU and its best on the road.
"The team handled some challenges that were thrown at them this past week with absolute grace and confidence," OU head coach K.J. Kindler said. "I am so proud of them today!"
Senior Hunter Price picked up her first career vault title with a score of 9.9. On bars, junior McKenzie Wofford tallied a 9.95 to share the individual honor with UCLA's JaNay Honest. The bars title was the ninth of the season for Wofford.
Junior Chayse Capps snagged her eighth beam title of the year after posting a huge 9.975 in the anchor spot. Capps also picked up the all-around honor with a 39.550. OU sophomore AJ Jackson and senior Haley Scaman shared the floor title with UCLA's Danusia Francis, Angi Cipra and Sadiqua Bynum with scores of 9.95.
After the first rotation, which featured the Sooners on bars and the Bruins on vault, OU took a 49.400 to 49.150 advantage.
For the 10th time this season, Wofford tallied at least a 9.9 on bars, contributing a 9.95 in the anchor spot to pace the Sooners on the event. Jackson provided a great start to the meet for OU, recording a career-high-matching 9.875 to lead off the rotation. Sophomore Stefani Catour took advantage of her career debut in the bars lineup, scoring an impressive 9.925 for the Sooners, and both Capps and senior Keeley Kmieciak contributed marks of 9.825 to the team score.
The Sooners used a 49.375 on vault, which matched their fifth-best score of the season on the event, to grow their lead .325, 98.775 to 98.450. On bars, the Bruins scored a 49.300.
In her second vault appearance of the season, Price set a career high with a 9.9 for OU. The trio of junior Charity Jones, Scaman and Jackson all tallied identical marks of 9.875. Freshman Nicole Lehrmann recorded a 9.85 in her first time in the team lineup since the season opener, and Capps contributed a 9.825 in the No. 4 spot.
Behind a 49.625 on floor, which is the third-best mark of the year for OU and ties the sixth-best in program history, the Sooners entered the final rotation with a 148.400 to 147.675 lead over the Bruins, who posted a 49.225 on beam.
On floor, Jackson and Scaman led the way with exciting routines that earned them both a 9.95. The score matched a career high for Jackson. Also putting together strong performances were Capps and Jones, who both tallied 9.925s. In the leadoff spot, sophomore Natalie Brown recorded a solid 9.875.
To close the meet, the Sooners turned in their best beam performance of the season, scoring a 49.550. The mark also matched the seventh-highest in OU history. On floor, the Bruins finished with a 49.525.
In the anchor spot on beam, Capps turned in yet another beautiful routine, scoring a 9.975 to put an exclamation point on the meet for OU. Capps has now scored at least a 9.9 in the last 10 meets. Catour finished her impressive afternoon by scoring a career-high 9.95 in the No. 3 spot.
"How about Stefani Catour? What a gutsy performance from this young woman," Kindler said.
Jones led off the beam rotation for the first time this season and scored a career-high 9.9 to spark the Sooners on the event. Brown added a 9.9, and freshman Nicole Lehrmann scored a 9.825. In her second beam appearance on the year, Jackson posted a 9.8 to bring her all-around total to 39.500.
The Bruins were the sixth team ranked within the top 10 and 14th within the top 25 that the Sooners have faced this season. In top-10 matchups, the Sooners now have a 5-1 overall record and hold a 13-1 mark in top-25 contests.
The Sooners open postseason competition next weekend in Frisco, Texas, as they head to the 2016 Big 12 Championships inside Dr Pepper Arena. The meet will pit top-ranked OU against new conference member and No. 10 Denver, No. 25 West Virginia and Iowa State. Competition is slated to begin at 4 p.m. CT on Saturday, March 19.
