Two-time NCAA champion Vanessa Zamarripa finished her UCLA career with 19 All-America honors, second-most in UCLA history. She also scored nine perfect 10s on vault in her career. As a freshman, she became just the sixth UCLA gymnast ever to earn the maximum five All-America honors in one season. The following year, she recorded the highest all-around score in the NCAA team final, leading the Bruins to the national championship. She won the NCAA vault title that year as well. Zamarripa won a total of six Pac-12 titles, including three vault titles and the 2010 all-around crown, and was selected the 2010 and 2013 Pac-12 Gymnast of the Year. During her senior season, she was named the NACGC/W Division I National Gymnast of the Year and the AAI Award-winner as the top senior in the nation. Zamarripa made an elite run in 2010 and finished eighth in the all-around and second on vault at the U.S. Championships and was named to the National Team.
