The No. 2-seeded LSU Gymnastics team is set to begin its NCAA postseason on April 2, hosting the Baton Rouge Regional at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. LSU aims for its 36th appearance in the NCAA Championships, competing alongside teams like No. 15 Clemson, Auburn, and Nebraska. The top two teams from both sessions on Thursday will advance to the regional final on April 4, where another two will secure spots at the NCAA Championships on April 16-18.

By the Numbers
  • LSU has made 43 NCAA Regional appearances, maintaining a streak of 41 consecutive berths.

Yes, But

While LSU boasts a strong record, their competitors include solid teams like the 7th-ranked Stanford and 10th-ranked Michigan, adding pressure to perform at a high level to secure progression.

State of Play
  • The Baton Rouge Regional is one of four nationwide hosting competition among the top 36 teams.
  • LSU holds the No. 1 spot on the floor exercise, a critical advantage heading into the postseason.
What's Next

If LSU advances beyond the regional final, they will compete in the NCAA Championships, aiming to further enhance their legacy in collegiate gymnastics.

Bottom Line

With their remarkable track record in postseason performance and current rankings, LSU Gymnastics is well-positioned to continue their successful legacy, but solid performances against tough competitors are crucial for their championship aspirations.
