As promised, here is an overview of how the top collegiate women's gymnastics teams did this weekend. Boise State of course is #12 and edged San Jose State by less than half a point, 195.925-195.550.
GymInfo will soon be ranking the teams by something they call the Regional Qualifying Score (RQS), which is akin to the BCS formula in football (although much more fair). For now, the teams are ranked by team average and it is that comparison I will focus on until the RQS takes hold.
Boise State came into this week #12 with a team average of 195.038. The score at San Jose will help them a bit--the Broncos' average is now 195.127. That probably won't be enough of a boost to raise them in the rankings, but we'll see if they fall. Here are some of the early results from around the nation this weekend.
#1 Florida travels to #4 Georgia this afternoon.
#2 Stanford downed Oregon State and UCLA with a great 196.475 score. They meet #8 Michigan and #9 Nebraska tomorrow.
#3 Utah was superb with a 196.975 last night.
#4 Georgia hosts #1 Florida.
#5 Oklahoma defeated Iowa State with a 197.225, the top score so far this weekend.
#6 Oregon State put up a 196.35 against Stanford. OSU is one team that Boise State must defeat at Regionals to make Nationals.
