This takes their NQS score to 198.420, beating their own record of 198.355 they set in 2023. With this, Oklahoma remains the No.1 team in NCAA Gymnastics for the ninth consecutive week.

Elsewhere, LSU notched their fifth consecutive victory to close out their regular season. The Tigers were up against North Carolina in front of a supportive audience at the Pete Maravich Assembly Centre in Baton Rouge.

The team dominated the competition, winning 198.250-196.075. With this, the Tigers will head into the SEC Championships this weekend as the first seeds.

Meanwhile, the California Golden Bears also had a strong finish to their NCAA Gymnastics regular season, ending with a perfect slate on home ground. For their last meet, the Bears took on the Stanford Cardinals and the Sacramento Hornet in Berkley.

California finished first with a score of 197.925, meaning they haven't lost a single meet in front of a home crowd this season. Stanford came in second, while the Hornets settled for third.

The Arkansas Razorbacks also delivered fantastic routines this past week, breaching their program score record for the third time this season. The team posted a 198.100, beating the Nebraska Cornhuskers who scored a 197.375.
