Gymnastics National Title Muppets
Watching something you don't understand but are extremely invested in turns out to be stressful!
AND YOU CAN'T HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER...
Congratulations to Michigan, just the seventh school to win a women's gymnastics national title.
Wow! Always knew the gymnastics program was great and won a bunch of B1G titles. That's awesome to bring in a national title!
For the board; that was exciting!
Thanks for posting this.
I love the "It's great ... to be ... a Michigan Wolverine" chant by the team when they are awarded the trophy!
Amazing stat:
Top 3 all around scores today:
- Sierra Brooks, Michigan - 39.775
- Natalie Wojcik, Michigan - 39.7375
- Abby Heiskell, Michigan - 39.725
That's right. Michigan gymnasts had the top 3 all-around scores for the championships. Incredible performances!
That would do it for Michigan. What an incredible performance by all three ladies plus let's not forget about Gabby Wilson with a 39.4125 which is good for 10th in the final in All-Around score.
Sierra Brooks was a monster today which started off the great run to close the door on OU. Career high of 9.9625 in the beam which came through at the right time of the season. Wojick's beam was fantastic as well.
YAYYYY 〽️UPNASTICS!!!
GO BLUE!
That final rotation was nerve-racking. IMO, the moment the last gymnast completed her dismount she knew she had won it for us.
I'm so glad I witnessed that live.
Team National Championships are currently rare for Michigan these days. So to finally see my alma mater win another one is truly special.
Fuck yeah!!!! Way to go ladies!!!
That puts an end to that long, long, long 7 year national title drought!
My W was on 1976 team. She is so excited and proud!
Incredible- she is a part of this historic effort! Congrats to your wife and all the gymnastics alumni!
Alumnae...
/ducks
Gooses or geese.
Alumni is the plural noun for a group of male graduates or male and female combined
Alumnae is the plural noun for a group of female grads
Alumnus is single/male
Alumna is single/female
Exactly. If the congratulations was for all gymnastics alumni (male and female), then the original post was correct. He was only intending on congratulating the alumnae of the women's gymnastics team, then the correction was appropriate.
Go Blue!!
Gymnastics dad here. (My daughter did college gymnastics.) This is huge and wonderful news. Bev Plocki does things the right way, unlike some other people in her sport, so she really deserved this.
Big for Michigan, big for the Big Ten. GO BLUE!
College gymnastics is generally pretty wholesome, I think. Because college coaches have to rebuild the women after USAG destroys them. Somewhere, UCLA's coach talked about this for a long time.
Well-staeeted!
That was fantastic! Go Blue!
And you win it with your program best score.
So happy for coach Bev on getting this.

so sad they were forced to wear masks for the championship photo's
didn't see that when Baylor won in basketball
Literally made myself hoarse yelling with the last four beam performances!
So, when’s the UFR?
Grats ladies! GO BLUE!
YOU CAN'T HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER...
Someone tell the men’s team!
It's great to be a Meeeechigan Wolverine!!!!
Congratulations on your National Championship.
Couldn't find a sports book in Nevada to take a bet on this. GO BLUE! Winning is fun.
I just looked at the roster and they won't lose anyone significant next season so they could very well repeat next season. They really have tightened up the floor exercise this weekend that allowed them to hold serve with the elite teams since it is easily their weakest rotation this season. They truly have peaked at the right time which is exactly what you want to see in any team sports.
good to see Plocki finally earn her keep around here.

You are an ass! in 39 years only 6 schools have won this championship and we are the 7th and you are critical of the coach. go back to Columbus or East Lansing you jerk
Wooooosssshhhhhh.
Let's go easy on jimlemire4. When you have to stand on tip-toes to get to 2 feet tall, one cannot help the fact the joke goes over your head.

/s means sarcasm
But if you noticed Gustave used s/ instead of /s. Maybe s/ means the opposite of sarcasm?

wow
come unhinged much?
Just an amazing effort. Needed to nail the last 3 Beam routines. And did. Program best score. National Champions. Muppets indeed.
Men go for the double tonight.
That last performance deserves to be on ESPNs top 10 tonight.
An amazing accomplishment and congrats to the women on the team. The fact that only 7 teams have won a title in 41 years.
Can we get a gymnast version of the “yay” girl?
Paging M-Dog...
CONGRATS AND GO BLUE!!

Hey "yay" girl can yay the girls (she did for WBB, iirc).
but yeah, it'd be fun to see a boy raising a hooray for ladies, too.
till then...
YA-Ay!
Hell yes. It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine.
Congratulations to Coach Bev and the team. Being taken down to the wire and pulling it out for the championship was a huge win. Enjoy celebrating this, you certainly earned it!
Who Hooo! It’s been decades but I went to a couple gymnastics meets at Michigan and knew some women on the team (and guys.)
A-MAIZING!! GO BLUE!
So proud of these young ladies!
On the road, just got to my motel, opened the blog and got this GREAT news. What a treat!
Go Blue!

Huzzah! Well done, ladies!
Way to go ladies!
