Final Women's National Rankings

1.  Finish of the Top 6 in the Super Six
2.  Scores in Prelims for Ranks 7 to 12
3.  NQS for Ranks 13 to 36

When your college recruiting strategy hits a wall, learn to pivot..

The college search for athletes is an individual and tactical quest that will play out differently across the board. If you happen to be that 5 star prospect that every college coach has his eye on, your biggest challenge will most likely be which college to choose! But if you are among the majority of prospects that are lumped into the next level of recruits, your college journey will be a little more challenging.

Women's Event Finals: Five Champions Crowned

Written by

The finals of the 2013 Women's NCAA Championships produced five National Champions:

Vault

On vault, Rheagan Courville of LSU stuck her Layout Yurchenko Full, achieving some of the greatest distance in the meet.  She was later tied with Bama's Diandra Milliner, who blasted a Yurchenko 1 1/2.  A small hop meant she would have to share the title.  UCLA's Olivia Courtney was third.

Bars

Gator Alaina Johnson hit her Ray release and stuck her double layout dismount to edge out teammate Bridget Sloan and Utah's Georgia Dabritz, who shared second.  Her 9.9125 was just enough to outdistance the pair. 

Beam

AA champ Sloan won a title of her own on BB, covering an off-balance on her flip-flop layout successfully and managing to hold her feet still on the dismount.  In second were Michigan's Katie Zurales and Minnesota's Hanna Nordquist.  Zurales nailed her aerial back-handspring series while Nordquist showed the even more difficult aerial back layout.

Floor

Michigan's Joanna Sampson hit some of the biggest tumbling of the meet, opening with a tidy double layout and ending with a sky high double pike.  Sampson actually shows a complete opening from her double pike, a level of amplitude rarely seen even at the elite level.  Bama's Diandra Milliner was second, drilling her double Arabian mount to a perfectly stuck landing.  In third was NU's Emily Wong, who opened with a tight and complete triple twist.
