Gymtide.com: Gymnastics Awaits Thursday Preliminaries at NCAA Championships

[GymBot]

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - The travel that took them across the country is finished. So is the last practice of the season, on the floor of the Huntsman Center here on the University of Utah campus. Even the interviews with CBS and the local and national media that have gathered here to cover the 26th NCAA Gymnastics Championships are over, at least for the moment.
All that is left for the Alabama Crimson Tide is the competition and a shot at a fifth NCAA title.
"It's great to be at Utah and to compete in our 25th consecutive championship," Alabama head coach Sarah Patterson said. "Utah is a special place for Alabama; it's where we competed at our first championship and where we won our first NCAA Championship. To make it to 25 NCAA Championships in a row is something of which we're very proud. Only the University of Utah has a longer streak. I can tell you to be at the 25th championship is equally as gratifying as it was 25 years ago."
