The field for the NCAA national gymnastics championships in Fort Worth is set after dramatic regional competitions. LSU, Florida, Oklahoma, and UCLA claimed regional titles, joining Stanford, Georgia, Arkansas, and Minnesota in the elite eight. The Tigers dominated at home with perfect 10s from Kailin Chio and Kaliya Lincoln, while Florida's Selena Harris-Miranda leads a deep roster peaking at the right time.

Utah's bid for a 50th consecutive nationals appearance ended in heartbreaking fashion, edged out by Minnesota by just 0.125 points. Meanwhile, Georgia marked its first semifinal appearance in seven years under new co-head coaches Cecile Canqueteau-Landi and Ryan Roberts, finishing second in Tempe without star Lily Smith. Jordan Chiles delivered her eighth perfect 10 of the season to secure UCLA's spot, capping an emotional weekend for the program.

Top-ranked Oklahoma enters as the favorite, having gone undefeated and earning the highest regional score at 198.350. The Sooners, led by senior Faith Torrez and sophomores Addison Fatta and Lily Pederson, aim for their eighth title in 12 seasons. Florida, fresh off its SEC championship, has won five straight meets with scores of 198 or better. With five SEC teams advancing, the conference's dominance continues as the championship field prepares to battle for the title on April 16.
