Seventeen members of the University of Missouri women’s gymnastics team have been named to the Women's Collegiate Gymnastics Association (WCGA) Scholastic All-America team. The announcement was made by the WCGA on Monday.
The university reported that its gymnasts achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.6924 during the 2024-25 academic year. Of the 22 student-athletes on the roster, 17 earned recognition for their academic performance.
According to the WCGA, “To qualify as a WCGA Scholastic All-American, a gymnast must have a GPA of 3.50 for either the prior academic year or have a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or above at their respective institution.”
This year, a total of 1,218 student-athletes nationwide received Scholastic All-America honors by earning at least a 3.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale in the 2025 season. This represents about 76.8 percent of all reporting gymnasts and sets new records since tracking began in 2008.
