Title: Gymnastics Beats Georgia, 196.475-196.325

The defending NCAA Champion Alabama gymnastics team got its 2012 season started with a down-to-the-wire win over Georgia, 196.475-196.325 in front of 14,501 fans in Coleman Coliseum.

"I am so proud of our team tonight," UA head coach Sarah Patterson said. "You could tell it was our first meet; we had some jitters. We had a couple of little freshmen mistakes. I think our ladies just used this challenge and I think we probably benefited more from the way the evening transpired than if we had gone out and been perfect."

The Crimson Tide was led by junior Ashley Sledge, who won her collegiate all-around debut with a 39.4. Sledge started her season off with a career-best 9.975 on the vault, which on most nights would have been good enough for the win, but tonight Geralen Stack-Eaton, who closed out her junior season by winning the NCAA floor exercise title, opened her senior season by scoring a perfect 10.0 on the vault.

Alabama gymnastics team introduction video. This is pretty cool. In addition to all the other awards they mention they tell each girls GPA.

IDK how other teams open their home meets, but that has to be intimidating!

"She can cook and clean with the best. Gravies are her specialty. Won't wear your debit card to a frazzle...with a 2.7GPA...Rolanda Tide"

It has to be intimidating. There was a little over 14,000 fans there too.
