Oregon State PAC-12 ANNOUNCES WEEKLY GYMNASTICS HONORS Today the Pac-12 Conference announced the Pac-12 women s gymnastics weekly honors for the week of Feb. 9-15. CALIFORNIA s Toni-Ann Williams was named the Gymnast of the Week, UCLA s Sophina DeJesus was voted Specialist of the Week, and UTAH s Sabrina Schwab was named the Freshman/Newcomer of the Week. CALIFORNIA sophomore Toni-Ann Williams earned Gymnast of the Week honors for the second time this season after leading the Golden Bears to a win over ARI- ZONA STATE on Monday, powering the team to its highest road score and second highest total in school history, a 196.900. Williams swept every event title and matched her own program-record 39.700 all-around total, scoring above a 9.9 on every event, includ-ing by a career-best 9.925 on beam. Williams landed her rare double front dismount for the high score, and is currently the only gymnast in the world performing the double front dismount on beam. Williams also notched season-high totals on vault (9.925), bars (9.90) and floor (9.95) to pick up five titles for the evening. In the national rankings this week, Williams is eleventh in the country on floor and ranks No. 22 in both the all-around the vault. Last season, Williams was named Pac-12 Freshman of the Year. She was named Gymnast of the Week once and Freshman / Newcomer of the Week six times during the 2015 season.

DeJesus became a viral sensation after her floor routine on Feb. 6 was viewed on the Internet by more than 27 million people. Coming off the newfound and unprecedented popularity, she performed well yet again, this time with a standout performance on the beam. DeJesus came close to scoring a perfect 10 on the beam, receiving a 10 from one judge and a 9.95 from the other to shatter her career-high with a 9.975. It was her first career win on the beam, and helped the Bruins set a new team season-high on beam with a 49.5. She followed up with a 9.9 on floor exercise to finish third. UTAH freshman Sabrina Schwab earned Freshman/Newcomer of the Week honors for the third time this season for her performance in the Red Rocks 197.125-196.250 win over WASHINGTON.
