ITHACA, N.Y. – Brown University, Texas Woman's University and the University of Minnesota posted the top three team grade-point averages (GPAs) for the 2022-23 academic year based on data submitted to the Women's Collegiate Gymnastics Association (WCGA).

Lindenwood finished the 2022-23 academic year with 17 student athletes earning at least a 3.50 GPA. This marked the third highest percentage of individuals on a team earning this award.

The Lions also finished sixth in the country with a team GPA of 3.77. Lindenwood moved up five spots from last year's ranking (11th in 2021-22). Six student-athletes from Lindenwood posted a 4.00 GPA last semester, Riley Daniels, Gayla Griswold, Nicole Wojcik, Hannah Moon, Samantha Krenzel, and Grace Kramer.

"Our team set a lofty goal of being in the top 10 academically this past year and they well over surpassed that," said head coach Catelyn Orel on her team. "We are so impressed by them and their dedication to their studies on a daily basis, they are truly top notch when it comes to academics. We are so thankful for all of the resources that Lindenwood provides in order for our athletes to maintain that type of success in the classroom."

Overall, 1,075 student-athletes earned a 3.5 or higher GPA on a 4.0 scale, 68.65% of all reporting gymnasts, and the 2nd most ever by total number and percentage (since 2008). There were 228 (14.56%) student-athletes with a 4.0 GPA. This was the third year in a row with more than 1,000 Scholastic All-America winners, and four of the top five universities broke into the lineup for the first time ever.

Across all gymnasts this year, the average GPA was a 3.5685 which is the 3rd highest (since available records in 2015), 54 institutions had a team GPA of a 3.5 or better, and in seven of the last eight years, at least one institution each year has had 100% of its athletes qualify for this prestigious award.

"Once again, our student-athletes continue to pursue excellence in the classroom at an incredibly high level. To see such amazing academic results, year in and year out, shows how dedicated our gymnasts are in all areas of their college experience," Melanie Hall, WCGA Chair of the Board and Head coach at Cornell University, said. "Across all conferences and divisions, the passion, grit, determination and constant time management skills our athletes display, is truly inspiring."

The Final Four participants from the two Greenville Regionals are set, and the SEC are the queens of the court coming out of Greenville. The No. 1 overall seed South Carolina Gamecocks are headed to the Final Four for the third straight season, and are looking for a second straight national championship. Head coach Dawn Staley is looking for her third title at the helm of the Gamecocks -- it would be her third in the past six seasons.

The Gamecocks are the No. 1 seed in the Greenville 1 Regional and won a defensive slugfest against UCLA in the Sweet 16, 59-43, and their length and athleticism were too much for for Maryland in a 86-75 Elite Eight win. The undefeated Gamecocks have won 42 straight games, and are looking to become the first unbeaten national champs since UConn went 38-0 in the 2015-16 season.

LSU, the No. 3 seed in the Greenville 2 Regional, is headed back to the Final Four for the first time since 2008, and the first time under Kim Mulkey who is in her second year in Baton Rouge. The Tigers won a tight game against Utah, 66-63, in the Sweet 16 and took down Miami in the Elite Eight. LSU is 32-2 on the season, the most recent of those losses coming in the SEC Tournament semifinals to Tennessee. Their only other loss this season? An 88-64 loss at South Carolina back on February 12.

The Tigers and Gamecocks wouldn't meet until the national championship game as LSU takes on the winner of the Seattle 3 Regional and South Carolina plays Caitlin Clark and Iowa in one of the most anticipated college basketball games of the season in their Final Four matchup.

There's always room to improve, but what they did tonight was stick together as a team and they went into every event with a lot of confidence. You could see how confident they were, and they believed how good they could be, and they certainly showed that for the second meet in a row."

COLUMBIA — South Carolina women's basketball is facing No. 7 Utah in the Basketball Hall of Fame Showcase, the Gamecocks' last ranked matchup of 2023.

No. 1 South Carolina (8-0) faces the Utes (8-1) on Sunday (2:30 p.m. ET, ESPN) at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut, home of the WNBA's Connecticut Sun. It is the first meeting between the programs.

Utah has faced one ranked opponent this season, No. 14 Baylor, and lost 84-77.

The Gamecocks have three wins against ranked opponents on their résumé, though then-No. 11 Maryland has since dropped out of the top 25.

Alissa Pili fuels dominant Utah offense

Utah's stats from 3-point range are eye-popping: The team shoots 43.6% from beyond the arc, which ranks No. 2 in the country. Five players are shooting better than 50% on 3-pointers, and 12 of 13 have made 20% or better on at least four attempts. The Utes have the No. 1 scoring offense in the nation, averaging 96.2 points per game.

A unicorn among post players, star forward Alissa Pili averages 23.2 points per game shooting nearly 57% from 3-point range. The 6-foot-2 senior shoots 73.6% from the field and averages 5.7 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. Pili is the reigning Pac-12 Player of the Year and was named to the 2023-24 Naismith Women's Player of the Year watch list.

How will Utes adapt to losing Gianna Kneepkens?

Gianna Kneepkens, the No. 2 scorer behind Pili, was ruled out for the season Monday after breaking multiple bones in her foot, and the team has played just one game without her, scoring a season-low 74 points in its win against St. Joseph's. Kneepkens was 10th in the country in 3-point percentage, hitting 54%, and No. 17 in 3's made with 27.

Senior forward Dasia Young started in place of Kneepkens against St. Joseph's, but she had just two points in 19 minutes. Wisconsin transfer Matyson Wilke played more than 20 minutes for just the second time this season and was Utah's third-highest scorer with nine points, and had three rebounds and two blocks.

Turnovers are key for both teams

In its loss to Baylor, turnovers were at the center of Utah's struggles. It gave up the ball 18 times, four by Pili, and Baylor capitalized with 27 points. Utah also struggled to generate turnovers, forcing 13 for just 11 points.

South Carolina is also on a turnover-prone streak. It gave up possession 20 times in a back-and-forth win over Duke, and committed another 16 against Morgan State. Utah averages 14 turnovers per game compared to the Gamecocks' 13.5.

Prediction

South Carolina 95, Utah 71: The Gamecocks' defense is better than anything Utah has seen this season. The Utes take an early lead, but they struggle to keep pace without Kneepkens once South Carolina settles in for the second half.
