No. 5 UCLA welcomes No. 37 Washington to Pauley Pavilion for a West Coast Big Ten showdown.
UCLA is coming off a win over Michigan State that featured several lineup shakeups due to illness—and still produced a season-high 197.425. Jordan Chiles led the way in dominant fashion, sweeping all four events and posting a nation-leading 39.875 all-around that included a perfect 10.000 on floor. The meet also highlighted the Bruins’ depth: Ciena Alipio earned her fourth 9.900-plus of the season on beam and made her bars debut, while freshmen Jordis Eichman and Ashlee Sullivan debuted on beam (Eichman also on vault). Sydney Barros capped the night with a 9.900 in her floor debut.
Washington enters after recording its second-highest score of the season in a 195.225 conference win over Rutgers. Kristin Lin led the Huskies with career highs of 9.900 on floor and a 39.225 in the all-around, while Lilly Tubbs claimed the bars title with a 9.900 and matched her beam career high with a 9.875. Floor was a standout for Washington, as the Huskies posted a season-best 49.225 on the event.

AFTER ONE: UCLA (49.425), UW (49.275)
What a start to the rotation on bars for Washington! This is the first score above 49.000 this season on the event for the team and they beat that by a lot! Lots of stuck landings and a 9.900 from McDonough is most certainly what they wanted to stay close after the first rotation.

They achieved season highs on vault, bars and floor. Jordan Chiles swept all four events for the second straight week. The Huskies unfortunately had to count a fall on beam and finished a bit shy of the 196 they were looking for with a 195.775. Still, that’s a season high for them! They had three rotations to be really proud of, but just couldn’t finish it off on beam.
