NORMAN —The NCAA has released details on the 2018 women's gymnastics championships, scheduled for April 20 and 21 inside Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Mo.

The No. 1 seed Oklahoma Sooners will compete in Semifinal II at 6 p.m. CT on Friday, April 20. OU will face No. 4 Florida, No. 5 Utah, No. 8 Washington, No. 9 California and No. 12 Kentucky, with the top three teams advancing to the NCAA Super Six on Saturday night.

Semifinal II and Super Six action will be aired on ESPNU.

Competing on the opposite side of the bracket for an NCAA title will be No. 2 LSU, No. 3 UCLA, No. 6 Alabama, No. 10 Arkansas, No. 11 Nebraska and No. 18 Georgia. The first semifinal will begin at noon CT on Friday and air on ESPN2.

All rotations were predetermined by random draw last summer. As the first-place finisher in the top of the bracket, the Sooners will open on beam. After a bye, the Sooners will then rotate through the remaining events (floor, vault, bye, bars). North Carolina all-around gymnast Morgan Lane will rotate with OU through all events.

OU won its ninth consecutive regional title last Saturday night, taking first place at the NCAA Minneapolis Regional to earn a spot in the championship field of 12. The Sooners' score of 198.000 was the nation's highest qualifying score this season. OU captured four individual titles, all with scores of 9.95 or higher. Sophomore Maggie Nichols took home titles on beam (10.0), floor (9.975) and the all-around (39.775), while junior Nicole Lehrmann claimed the top spot on bars (9.95).
