As the final week of the regular season wraps up, here are five routines you just can't miss.
McMurtry opens her routine with a sky-high triple twist that is one of the cleanest in the country. She scored a 10.0 two weeks ago against Missouri in just her second floor routine of the season. The junior is capable of bringing in huge scores on floor despite having a back injury that limits her training time. The Gators are looking to bounce back in their final home meet of the season after a loss against LSU last weekend.

Gnat has eight career perfect 10s with half of those coming on her Yurchenko double full. She scored two of those 10.0s on vault this season, including one last weekend against Florida. The senior has an uncanny ability to find her landing on this vault and has been bringing in big numbers throughout her career in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She currently leads the country on vault and has not scored below a 9.900 on the event all season.
Rowe is a standout competitor for the Utes on balance beam with a stellar set in the anchor position. She has some Michael Jackson flair with a moonwalk right before her dismount. She also brings a solid triple series--two back handsprings and a layout stepout. She is tied for eighth in the country on beam and has not scored below a 9.850. She's hit a 9.900 or better five times this season.

Kocian came into her first collegiate season with plenty of pressure on her as the reigning Olympic silver medalist and defending world champion on uneven bars. She had her struggles early in the season but has bounced back well. She brings plenty of difficulty in her routine and has five scores of 9.875 or better.

Nichols has dominated collegiate gymnastics as a freshman for the Sooners. She has scored a 10.0 on all four events and led the country in the all-around and on all four events at one point this season. Her floor routine is an excellent blend of difficulty and artistry. The Oklahoma freshman has been rock solid on all of her landings and has not scored below a 9.925 on floor all season. Aside from the great landings on her tumbling, she has showcased gorgeous leaps and jumps throughout her routine as well. The Sooners have been resting her recently, so look for Nichols to get back in the lineups this week with postseason just a week away.
