The Oklahoma women took the Metroplex NCAA title once again! The atmosphere was electric! Very rarely do you get to see this many top ranked teams in one meet during the regular season. Coming into the competition, OU was ranked #2, LSU #7, Georgia #9, and Oregon State #16. The Sooners narrowly topped LSU who posted an incredible 197.1. Taylor Spears of OU and Rheagan Courville of LSU shared the All Around title with a 39.45.

Highlights of the evening included a nearly perfect beam routine from Sooner Lauren Alexander (9.975), the stuck vaults by LSU, Chelsea Davis scoring a 9.95 on bars for the second week in a row, Rheagan Courville winning a 10.0 from one of the judges (9.95 average), the pressure Oregon State put on their competition, Haley Scaman's double layout and the execution of the entire LSU floor rotation. More specifically, the sheer performance of Lloimincia Hall on floor caused the audience to yell and cheer louder than any other time during the competition!

Boomer Sooner! Congratulations to both the OU men and women for taking home the Metroplex trophy this year!
