NCAA Gymnastics Championships: Oklahoma Holds Off LSU, Wins Eighth National Title

Stop if you’ve heard this one before—the Oklahoma Sooners are national champions.

Oklahoma went up against LSU, Florida and Minnesota for a shot at a second consecutive national championship on Saturday. The Sooners held the lead over the first two rotations, but LSU overtook them after an exceptional bars rotation. The Sooners and Tigers went head-to-head on floor and beam for a shot at the championship, with Oklahoma narrowly beating out LSU to win the title by less than one tenth. This is the eighth national championship in program history for the Sooners, third-most all time.
