(After my email to Virtius support last weekend, they cleaned some things up, and explained the LIVE stats were missing OSU gymnasts/scores due to an early sync with RTN assigned gymnast IDs before OSU’s final roster was finalized/submitted. They also removed exhibition scores from the live “Leaderboard” so rankings are shown correctly.)

Post-meet press-conference video (~6 min; felt cut short?) with ...
Tanya Chaplin, Kyanna Crabb. Ellie Weaver

(*Career Highs!)
(**Sophia K.’s first beam score of her career.)
(***New Season Highs)

Kyanna’s 9.925 Exhibition on Floor ranks high in OSU All-Time Exhibition scores …. I only looked far enough to see it wasn’t a new record (even on Flr) … also in some recent seasons (’21 & ’22?) there is no record of exhibition scores. As was suggested to me, this could be the first time (for OSU) with a 10.0 judge’s score for an exhibition!?
Arianna Young scored a 9.950 on a Beam Exhibition (9.95??/9.95??) on 3/11/2023 vs Utah!
Sophia Esposito scored a 9.925 on a Floor Exhibition (9.90??/9.95??) on 1/13/2024 @Rutgers!


Gazette Times Article:
Ellie Weaver shines as Oregon State gymnastics team wins home opener
(As always, this should require a subscription to read. Very little that isn’t in the press-conference video or scores in this e-mail; it includes his photos of Ellie & Oliva on beam.)

Beavers defeat Sacramento State, earning first win of the season
("Just the facts, ma'am", … at least nothing cringe worthy as in some past seasons!)
