CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCIA) — The NCAA Men’s Gymnastics Championships are set to take place at the State Farm Center, with Illinois men’s gymnastics acting as both host and competitor.
Across two days, the nation’s top twelve teams will vie for victory, aiming to secure one of the coveted spots in Saturday’s Super Six finals. The top three teams from each session on Friday, April 17, will advance to the final showdown.
“Champaign is a key stop on the journey to the LA Olympics,” remarked head coach Daniel Ribeiro. “Attendees of this event will witness future Olympians, those who will either grace NBC during the Olympic Games or be seen live. It all begins here, showcasing talent of extraordinary caliber. Gymnastics lacks a professional league, so the finest gymnasts are found within these 15 collegiate programs, featuring the top 250 athletes globally.”
The first session on Friday kicks off at 1 p.m., followed by a second session at 7 p.m., which will include the Illinois team. The finals are scheduled for Saturday at 6 p.m.
Tickets for all sessions throughout the weekend are available through Illini Athletics.
