COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Stanford’s Asher Hong won the vault, parallel bars and rings and Khoi Young won the all-around title to help the Cardinal secure its fifth consecutive NCAA men’s gymnastics national championship on Saturday.
Stanford won its 10th title in program history — tied with Illinois for third-most all time — and joins Nebraska (1979-83) as the only schools to win five in a row. Penn State and Oklahoma have each won 12 titles.
The Cardinal finished with 425.324 points, 5.635 ahead of second-place Michigan. Oklahoma, which won four straight national championship from 2015-18, finished with 412.956 to edge out fourth-place Nebraska (412.427) and Illinois (411.659). Ohio State was sixth with 399.122.
The sophomore Hong scored a 15.266 to win the vault for the second consecutive season in Rotation 1 as Stanford had 73.632 — the highest score by any team in any rotation — on its way to a wire-to-wire win. Michigan’s Paul Juda and Young each had a 15.133 to round out the top 3.
