COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Alex Buscaglia tied for first in Friday night’s last event to lead Stanford to its fifth NCAA men’s gymnastics title and the school’s 100th national championship in all sports.
Sam Mikulak won the all-around title, giving Michigan that distinction for the second year in a row. Teammate Chris Cameron won it in 2010.
The Cardinal totaled 363.450 points to hold off top-ranked Oklahoma, which had 361.600. Illinois was third with 360.150. California, which had its program eliminated due to budget cuts, finished fourth in what could be its final competition.
Buscaglia, a senior, had a 16.350 in the vault to share the top score in the event with Mikulak.
The other individual events will be contested on Saturday night.
