Brooklyn Moors returns from injury, helps UCLA gymnastics vault into regional final

LA Times  

Brooklyn Moors returned from a knee injury to help UCLA win its NCAA regional semifinal Thursday at Pauley Pavilion. Led by their best vault rotation since 2020 and a season-high 49.675 on beam, the Bruins won their NCAA regional semifinal Thursday with a season-high-tying score of 198.275 at Pauley Pavilion. After entrenching herself in UCLA’s floor lineup last season, the sophomore was limited to three exhibition routines during the regular season, including two on floor, where the Bruins are ranked first nationally. Her career-high 9.9 helped UCLA to a vault score of 49.575, which eclipsed the team’s previous season high by one-tenth of a point.
