The Dismount: Week 3

The season is starting to find its groove, with most teams now having competed and lineups starting to be solidified. Catch up on all the meets you missed and relive the ones you didn’t in the Dismount.

Most Surprising 10

Rachel Baumann, Georgia, Floor

When we look back at it, we’re not mad this routine got a 10; there’s really nothing to take. However, in the moment we just weren’t expecting it, especially after the beam rotation Georgia was coming off of. Maybe that makes the mark even better! We may have enjoyed the emotional hug Rachel had with her sister Alyssa, a Florida fifth-year, after the meet’s conclusion even more.

Best Meet Day Hair

Austynn Lacasse, Maryland

Maryland held a Pride meet on Saturday, and Lacasse took it to the next level. The entire team wore these matching shirts that appear homemade for warmups, too.

The Taylor Houchin Award

Derrian Gobourne, floor, 9.975

Auburn’s senior floor queen scored a 9.975 for the third time in her career, helping the Tigers clinch their second-highest total in program history in front of a sold-out home crowd. 

Best Vaults

Gabi Stephen, Michigan State; Emily Leese, Rutgers; Jocelyn Moore, Missouri

Vaulting was stellar this weekend, and these three rose to the top. As expected, scoring was questioned on Twitter. Stephen received a perfect 9.950 for her Yurchenko full, while Leese scored a 9.825 and Moore received a 9.950.

Clutch Moment

Marissa Rojas, Iowa, Beam, 9.925

In her first college beam routine after being swapped in as a last-second replacement and leadoff fall, Iowa freshman Marissa Rojas stepped in as anchor and nailed her set to earn a 9.925 and ultimately win the meet for the Hawkeyes.

First Program Win

LIU

The Sharks earned their first team win in program history, going 194.200 to Yale’s 193.875. This is also the highest team score for LIU since the program’s inaugural season in 2021.

  1. There were definitely deductions in real time in Baumann’s floor exercise I was quite surprised it went 10.0 but they were at home in Georgia, so I guess it is not surprising.
    She was definitely not precise on her wolf turn and went way past the turn. So should have had a deduction there.
    Also, though she did take a step forward after her front full and then went into dance, her back foot moved as well so that should have been a slight deduction.
