The Gleaming Gymnast

3/3 Both military academies made the NCAA Championships field. This one's personal. Navy has won 8 straight Star Meets, the annual head-to-head rivalry. The all-time series: 45-43-2 in Navy's favor. Coach Kip Simons is a 1996 Olympian who's won 7 ECAC titles in 11 years. Army is celebrating 100 years of gymnastics in 2026. Coach JD Reive left a Big Ten head coaching job at Iowa to rebuild West Point's program. Results: ECAC title in 2025 (first in 9 years), program-best 10th at NCAAs. Both will compete in the same building. The rivalry doesn't stop for championships, it gets louder. Army or Navy — who finishes higher at NCAAs? #NCAAgym #GoArmy #GoNavy #NCAAMGYM

2/3 for the day: Stanford scored 332.061 at the 2025 NCAA Championships and lost. Michigan beat them by 0.163 points, ending a five-year title streak that only Nebraska (1979–83) had matched. This year's Stanford senior class has won a national championship every year of their careers except last year. Asher Hong is having his best season ever. Six-time NCAA individual champion. 2024 Olympic bronze medalist. Career-best all-around: 86.050. Three-time MPSF Gymnast of the Year. Nissen-Emery finalist. Nick Kuebler (2023 NCAA floor champion) earned MPSF Specialist of the Year, first Stanford gymnast to ever receive the honor. Seven event titles this season. Stanford doesn't rebuild. They reload. And they remember 0.163. How many individual titles does Asher Hong win at his last NCAAs? #NCAAgym #GoStanford #ERA

@HuskerMGym is ranked #1 on vault in the country. The #4 seed just tied for the program's highest Big Ten finish, 2nd place, 320.700. Asher Cohen won Big Ten rings and is a Nissen-Emery finalist, one of the most prestigious individual honors in college gymnastics. That award gets presented at NCAAs this week. Nathan York won Big Ten parallel bars. Max Odden finished 2nd in the Big Ten all-around with a career-high 78.000. Luke James took bronze on floor and vault. Caden Clinton silver on parallel bars. Five All-Americans from last year's NCAAs. This roster runs deep. How far can the Huskers go in Champaign? #NCAAgym #GBR

Day 4 of our NCAA Men's Gymnastics Championship countdown. 3 days out. Today: the team ranked #1 on vault in the country, the program that remembers 0.163, and the longest rivalry in college gymnastics. #NCAAgym #Champaign12

I came across Trinity Thomas’s 2023 NCAA Championship Perfect 10 on vault while doing some research. This was her 28th career 10! I had to share. youtube.com/watch?v=RaJ0Fi… With 5 straight 198+ scores, Florida is coming in hot. I’m excited to see them compete this year. @Gym_Trin #NCAAGym

Tomorrow: Nebraska's reload, Stanford's stars, and the longest rivalry in college gymnastics. Day 4. #NCAAgym

Four years ago, Greenville Men's Gymnastics didn't exist. Greenville University began competing in 2023, only the second D3 school in the country with one, alongside Springfield. Head coach Zach Peters, a Nebraska alum who competed at two NCAA team finals, built it from scratch. In year four, the Panthers won their first ECAC championship. They were in 4th place entering the final rotation at West Point, then hit a season-best vault to steal the title, 313.200, edging Navy and Army. Jaxon Clapper won vault and parallel bars. Kyler Hinson won the all-around. Matthew Roth won pommel horse. From zero to nationals in four years. This is one of the best stories in college gymnastics. #NCAAgym

Day 3 of our NCAA Men's Gymnastics Championship countdown. 4 days out. Today: the defending champion and the program that didn't exist four years ago. #NCAAgym #Champaign12

@gymnastics Beautiful routine!

Maiana Prat 🇫🇷 is moving up in the world: In her World Cup debut in Osijek, the 16-year-old hit all the right notes with this new Floor Exercise routine. She's leaving Croatia with 🥈! #Gymnastics

@dawseykins Obviously the graphic was ai generated, the intent was never to imply it wasn't. And honestly, it got a ton of engagement. What's your take on the content, graphic aside? We actually do live the sport, the community, and hope to contribute to its continued growth.

@GleamingGymnast AI slop all over the place omg

@thegymslam We're all entitled to our opinions. Follow us to get our stats and take on the rest of the teams. :)

everyone block this user please thanks

@Fradazzled8888 @AdexatNight @GymCoaching I don't disagree about UCLA's talent and depth. But look at Jordan's stats. And of course FL is on a path. Look at their last 5 meets. Let's go Ft. Worth.

@AdexatNight @GleamingGymnast @GymCoaching I agree with @AdexatNight. UCLA has a lot of talent and depth. As much as I love Jordan but UCLA is more than Jordan. The elite freshmen for instance showed so much growth throughout the season and Minnesota showed why they can be a dangerous threat to any team. And yes Florida?
