The Bruins have momentum from a second-place finish at the Pac-12 championships and all-conference honors going into Friday’s California Regional Second Round.
UCLA’s Selena Harris gets cheered on by teammates and coaches during her floor exercise during a meet against Clemson on March 16, 2024, at Pauley Pavillion. It’s been two weeks since the UCLA gymnastics team last competed, but there is no absence of competitive fire as the Bruins prepare for the NCAA California Regional Second Round on Friday.
Eleventh-seeded UCLA will travel to Cal’s Haas Pavilion to compete in the California Regional Second Round’s first session Friday at 1 p.m. against No. 6 seed Denver, Arizona State and Washington. The Bruins’ first event of the meet will be floor exercise. They’ll move to vault and uneven bars after that and finally, balance beam. UCLA is used to finishing meets on the floor, an event in which the Bruins are ranked sixth nationally, but the gymnasts are embracing the change of schedule.
Selena Harris became the 21st gymnast in program history to earn Pac-12 Gymnast of the Year recognition and also won the all-around at the Pac-12 championships. She’s notched four perfect 10s in her sophomore season. “It really does take a full team effort every single day in and out of the gym to be able to hold each other accountable to be the championship team that we want to be,” UCLA coach Janelle McDonald said.
