Six Oklahoma Gymnasts Named All-Big 12
No. 1-ranked Oklahoma placed six members in 11 spots on the All-Big 12 women’s gymnastics team on Wednesday.
It’s the 14th year in a row for OU to lead the conference in All-Big 12 picks.
Freshman Jordan Bowers landed three selections: vault (she’s the top-ranked athlete in the nation in the event), parallel bars and floor.
Sophomores Audrey Davis and Katherine LeVasseur and junior Ragan Smith were named in two events. Davis, No. 1 in the nation in bars, also received all-around accolades. LeVasseur got the nod on vault and beam. Smith — who’s now up to five career Big 12 honors — is No. 1 nationally in floor exercise as well as bars.
Super seniors Karrie Thomas and Carly Woodard were honored as well. Thomas picked up first All-Big 12 honor on bars, while Woodard earned her first career recognition on beam.
Under head coach K.J. Kindler, the Sooners are aiming for a 12th Big 12 Championship on Saturday in Denver. OU takes on conference rivals Denver, Iowa State and West Virginia at 6 p.m. CT on ESPNU.
