NCAA RELEASE
INDIANAPOLIS—The NCAA announced today the teams and individuals that qualified to compete for the 2010 National Collegiate Women’s Gymnastics Championships.
The championships, hosted by the University of Florida, will be held at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center Center, April 22-24.
The women’s gymnastics championships consist of 12 teams and 12 all-around competitors (who are not on a qualifying team) and individual event specialists. The top two teams and the top two all-around competitors from each regional received automatic berths to the national championships.
In addition, the event winners at the regional championships advance to the national championships (in their specific event) if they were not part of a qualifying team or the all-around qualifiers.
The process for determining rotation pairings for day one of the team competition at the site of the finals is based on a National Qualifying Score (NQS) calculated by adding the Regional Qualifying Score (RQS) to the score achieved at regional competition.
Once the NQS is calculated, teams are ranked based on the NQS from 1 to 12. Teams 1, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 12 were placed in Group A; and teams 2, 3, 6, 7, 10 and 11 placed in Group B. The host team and its corresponding group will compete in the second session, if the host team qualifies. If not, then a random draw will be used to determine competition session.
Team qualifiers and individual qualifiers for the 2010 women’s gymnastics championships are as follows:
