Alabama edges out Oklahoma to take back the #1 ranking this week. Oregon State is in third. LSU's Susan Jackson retains her lead in the AA, but was overtaken by Brandi Personett of PSU on the VT. On UB, Oregon State's Leslie Mak is now tied with UCLA's Vanessa Zamarripa. Bama's Ashley Preiss is the leader on BB, while UGA's Courtney McCool takes over the top spot on FX.
UCLA's Vanessa Zamarripa BB, FX and AA (39.5) while teammate Anna Li posted a near-perfect 9.975 on UB. But those efforts, along with Brittani McCullough's winning Yurchenko 1 1/2 on VT, were not enough to overcome the Cardinal's balanced attack. Stanford used a big FX rotation and solid BB to take over UCLA's early lead.
