I see where Molly Brinkman is leaving LSU and entering the Portal. She stated that she has 4 years of competing left. I hope that she finds a home and does well.

They all compete with a team mindset but several gymnasts are exceptional competitors. Individual honors that are earned are always a plus for LSU.
I agree that they need to be their best for the Final Four. All the awards are determined in the the semi if it continues as years past. Chio, Lincoln and anyone else that are possibilities for the event and all around awards will need to be dialed in at the semi final.
LSU had very few "stuck dismounts" on vault, bars and beam. That will need to improve for Ft Worth. It looks like Georgia is peaking and could be an upset for someone on our side of the bracket. Maybe Konnor will be able to compete beam. We really need her on this event and bars but bars are most likely out unless she recovers quickly.
It's a shame Madison wasn't named All SEC. She was so good on bars. Maybe she will move toward the last three of the lineup so her score will go higher than the 9.90 next season.
This was listed on lsusports.net. The rotation order may change as it has in past regional finals.

Competition Rotation
Beginning with the 2026 championship season, all teams will select their competition rotation order based on their National Qualifying Score (NQS) rankings. "The highest-ranked team in each session will have the first opportunity to select its starting event." The remaining teams will select in descending order of NQS until all four teams have made their selections.

The competition will continue to follow Olympic order (vault, uneven bars, balance beam, floor exercise). Once all teams have selected their starting events, the NCAA will integrate individual event specialists (IES) and all-around (AA) competitors into the rotation and distribute the official competition rotation for each session.

The Baton Rouge Regional rotation order. The coaches were given the choice of what event they will begin on. Jay usually chooses bars but ending on floor should be a strong closer for LSU. Let's hope LSU will get a few sticks on vault with it being the first event.

It looks like they put Konnor back in the Vault lineup according to the Virtius Scoreboard listing.


Has anyone calculated the NQS for Florida and LSU for week 11? There is some chatter that FL will move to #2.
I look forward to seeing Zoe in lineups. Her beam work is looking good!

Wow. Sounds like the National Championship winning coach should hire you as an assistant coach!

Landing with straight legs combined with a little too much power can cause the gymnast to take a step. Judges are taking deductions on dismounts that are not stuck landings.
Someone needs to tell several of the girls to bend their knees on dismounts to hold the stick. Several of the girls would have stuck dismounts in doing this. It could have made a difference in the meet tonight. Proud to have a good road score. Not sure Florida can count that high "home score" for NQS.
It is their highest overall score.

Konnor and Kailin has some well deserved recognition in the links below.

Florida is racking up with HIGH scores at the TWU meet.
Bars 49.60, Beam 49.80 .
Powerful tumbling. She will shine at LSU!
Great meet for the Tigers. If LSU can work on sticking their routines, I believe they can give OK a run for the win next week. Sticking routines is standard at OK. They stick with deep squats and the judges award them.
Konnor has a "metal glitch" on that leap series. That has given her fits on most of her beam routines this year. I hate this for her.
Konnor's bar routine should have been a 10 period!
I am hoping the team is on with great focus and sticks this coming Friday at the PMAC. They need a strong score with just two home meets left after Friday before the SEC Championship and post season. There are 4/5 teams in the SEC that are competing to be in the top four. It has been fruit basket turnover so far. The team needs to live up to the talent and potential they have as competitors to set some distance in scores from other teams. We all know this team is capable.
