The energy in Pauley Pavilion at the UCLA gymnastics meet Sunday came to a head during the Bruins’ floor routines. Coach Valorie Kondos Field emphasized the entertainment element of her team’s performance in the week leading up to the meet and it showed.
No. 6 UCLA scored high on floor exercise and the balance beam, edging out No. 3 Alabama by two-tenths of a point. The Bruins’ final score of 196.550 narrowly defeated the Crimson Tide at 196.300.
