Gators No. 2 in 2024 WCGA Preseason Poll
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The same two programs topping the 2023 NCAA Championships team final hold those same positions in the 2024 Women’s Collegiate Gymnastics Association (WCGA) preseason poll.
Defending NCAA champion Oklahoma leads the preseason poll, followed by Florida. Rounding out the top five are No. 3 LSU, No. 4 Utah and No. 5 UCLA.

“We are excited to get the 2024 season started. It will be great to be back in the packed arenas with the crowds cheering these amazing gymnasts,” Florida Head Gymnastics Coach Jenny Rowland said. “Should be a fun season!”
