Sometimes, disappointment can actually spur a higher level of performance. That was what happened to Cal last Wednesday when the Bears captured a win following a tough loss at the hands of rival Stanford just four days prior.
No. 10 Cal topped Springfield College by 17.25 points Feb. 17, hitting a season-high score of 387.2. Getting back to their winning ways, and this time with a week to prepare, the blue and gold are ready to square off with No.11 William & Mary in another virtual meet Wednesday. Like all of the other virtual meets this season, spectators are not allowed to attend the meet in person, but the competition can be accessed through the streaming service Virtius.

No. 2 Stanford men’s gymnastics were shorthanded in its first regular season meet of the 2021 season. Counting at most four routines in four of the six events toppled the Cardinal in a 306.650 – 379.950 loss to No. 16 William & Mary.
Looking to repeat as NCAA champions, head coach Thom Glielmi acknowledged the difficulty his gymnasts had in training but is optimistic about this season.
