Dennis kicked off the meet with a perfect score on her Yurchenko layout full vault, which has a start value of 9.95, helping the Bruins take the fi rst rotation lead with a On uneven bars in rotation two, she led off with a career-high to take fi rst place and lead UCLA to a team score of The event wins were the fi rst of her career. PERFECT 10 NOTES The three 10s scored by the Bruins Christine Peng-Peng Lee (beam), Felicia Hano (fl oor) and Katelyn Ohashi (fl oor) on Feb. 4 were the most in a single meet since three were scored on Mar. 7, 2004 by Jeanette Antolin (vault and fl oor) and Yvonne Tousek (bars) Hano and Ohashi became the fi rst pair of Bruins to score back-to-back 10s on fl oor since Kate Richardson and Antolin on Feb. 22, 2004 The six 10s were the most in Pauley Pavilion since there were eight scored by fi ve gymnasts at the 2002 UCLA Invitational, including three by UCLA s Jamie Dantzscher Lee scored her second consecutive perfect 10 on beam, joining Ohashi as the only Bruins ever to record perfect 10s on beam in consecutive meets Lee has three perfect 10s on beam in her career, one off the school record of four set by Richardson Lee s fi ve overall perfect 10s is tied for sixth-most in school history Ohashi is just the fourth Bruin ever to score a perfect 10 on both beam and fl oor, joining Kristen Maloney, Mohini Bhardwaj and Richardson. HONORING A LEGACY Felicia Hano s fl oor exercise routine this season is a legacy routine originally performed by All-American Sydney Sawa in 2014 and passed down to Hano. Sawa scored a perfect 10 on that routine on Feb. 22, 2014 and was, in fact, the last UCLA gymnast to score a perfect 10 on fl oor until Hano did it with the same routine on Feb. 4, SEEING DOUBLE Identical twins Anna and Grace Glenn competed in a meet together for the fi rst time as Bruins on Feb. 10 at Cal. Anna made her collegiate competitive debut on vault, scoring 9.8.

The twins sat out all of last season with torn labrums, which were injured on the same skill in preseason. KOCIAN MAKES QUICK RETURN Two-time Olympic medalist and three-time World champion Madison Kocian is making her way back to the 2017 form that saw her earn four All-America honors. Kocian, who returned to competition on Jan. 20 after undergoing shoulder surgery in August, has competed in the last fi ve meets on balance beam and scored 9.9 or higher the past two meets, with a season-high at Cal on Feb. 10. Kocian had an impressive freshman campaign despite competing with a torn labrum that she suffered at the 2016 Olympic Trials. She competed in the all-around in all but two meets in 2017 and amassed a total of 16 individual victories, including the NCAA Regional bars and fl oor titles. KONDOS FIELD EARNS CAREER WIN 500 UCLA head coach Valorie Kondos Field surpassed 500 career coaching victories with the Bruins win at Metroplex Jan. 27. The Pac-12 Gymnastics Coach of the Century now holds a career coaching record of (.806) in 28 years as UCLA s head coach. Kondos Field has won six NCAA Championships and four national coach of the year honors, and in 2010, she became the second active coach ever to be inducted into the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame.

A total of 17 Bruins performed at Cal, with Mercedez Sanchez and Kendal Poston performing exhibition routines. At Arizona, 13 Bruins competed, with six different gymnasts taking home individual titles (Katelyn Ohashi in the all-around with a career-high and on beam with a 9.95; Felicia Hano on vault and fl oor with 9.9s; Kyla Ross on bars with a 9.925, Grace Glenn and Christine Peng-Peng Lee tying for fi rst with Ohashi on beam, and Pauline Tratz tying Hano for fi rst on fl oor).
