UCLA Captures First-Ever Big Ten Regular Season Title

March 02, 2025 | Gymnastics

Columbus, Ohio - No. 3 UCLA won its first-ever Big Ten Regular Season title after a first-place finish at the Big Four Meet at Ohio State. The Bruins (12-2) went unbeaten in conference play with a 9-0 record. 

The Bruins earned their eighth consecutive meet victory with their first-place score of 197.200 in the Big Four Meet. Nebraska was second with 196.675, Ohio State was third with 196.650, and Rutgers was fourth with 195.875.
UCLA started the meet with a 49.500 on floor exercise, counting five scores of 9.850 or higher. Brooklyn Moors and Jordan Chiles closed the rotation with back-to-back 9.950s, while Macy McGowan and Emma Malabuyo contributed 9.875s, and Chae Campbell added a 9.850.
The Bruins put together six scores of 9.825 or higher on vault for a team total of 49.275. McGowan and Mika Webster-Longin led the squad with scores of 9.875 on their Yurchenko 1.5s, and Campbell equaled that mark with a stuck Yurchenko full. Emily Lee, Brooklyn Moors and Chiles each scored 9.825. Nebraska cut into UCLA's lead after scoring 49.375 on beam, pulling within two-tenths at the halfway mark, 98.775-98.575.

On uneven bars in rotation three, the Bruins scored 49.300, thanks in large part to Campbell's 9.875 leadoff and Chiles' 9.950 anchor score. The Bruins had some landing issues in between that dropped strong routines down to lower marks and could only gain .150 on the Huskers, who scored 49.150 on floor. 
Up by just 0.35 going into the final rotation, the Bruins needed to hit balance beam to secure the outright conference championship, and they did just enough, scoring 49.125 to win the quad meet. Lee's leadoff 9.875 was the highest beam mark for UCLA, who also had 9.825s from Chiles and Campbell.

Chiles won the all-around for the third consecutive meet, scoring 39.550. Campbell was third with a score of 39.425.

The Bruins will wrap up their home schedule on Sunday, March 9, hosting Stanford in a non-conference matchup at 5:30 pm. The meet is Senior Day for the Bruins. Tickets are on sale now at uclabruins.com/tickets. General admission tickets can be purchased for $4 using the discount code SENIORS.
