Noah Newfeld

Last Saturday at Haas Pavilion, Cal men’s gymnastics welcomed No. 1 Oklahoma to its last home meet of the season to face off in a head-to-head battle of technique and endurance.

The Bears, coming off of a major high with their recent record-breaking win against Army and William & Mary, are fueled up for their last home meet of the season this Saturday.

The blue and gold pulled away from their opponents Army and William and Mary, combining for a total of 399.350, their highest overall score so far this season.

Despite their final team rankings falling short of No. 2 Stanford and No. 6 Illinois, the Bears each reached far, breaking records and hitting sets as a result.

The Bears are hoping that their dedication in practice shines through during the meet, where they’ll face intimidating opponents in Stanford and Illinois, both of whom are ranked in the nation’s top six.

The Cal men’s gymnastics team fell to Air Force for the first time in three years, but has high hopes for a victory in the coming meet against Springfield.

After taking team losses against Stanford and Team USA in their last two meets, the Bears are hoping to snag their first win of the season against Air Force and Army at the Cadet West Gym in Colorado.

An injury-marred Cal team fought to the finish at the Stanford Open on Saturday, but it wasn’t enough to top No. 1 Stanford or Team USA.

Among Cal’s most anticipated performances is Noah Newfeld, who will look to punch his ticket to the Winter Cup after doing so at the same event last year.

Despite losing to Stanford’s 410.5, Cal posted its second-highest season-opening result in the modern scoring era — a 394.95 — and rose to No. 6 in the nation.
