It seems like we compete against a Top 10 team every week. CSP has the team performing at a high level again this year.

The No. 4 ranked Alabama gymnastics team had a night for the ages Friday in Coleman Coliseum, breaking its school record and posting the highest score in the nation this season to beat No. 10 Stanford, 198.250-196.300, in front of 11,138 fans in Coleman Coliseum.

"I think it was rewarding to beat Florida, who I think of as the most talented team in the country, last week but then to not settle for that and to continue to make ourselves better ... I think now as we get towards championship season this team now has the confidence in themselves to know that on any given night we can do this," UA head coach Sarah Patterson said.

The previous school mark of 198.075 was set in 1996 on the way to winning the NCAA Central Region Championship in Baton Rouge, La. The Crimson Tide's mark also bettered the Coleman Coliseum record of 196.025, also set in 1996 on the way to the Tide's third NCAA Championship.
