STANFORD, Calif. – For the second consecutive week, No. 1 Stanford topped California in every event, this time capturing the Stanford Open with a score of 406.300 on Saturday night in the home-opener from Burnham Pavilion. Cal followed in second at 395.750, with NorCal United in third (284.400).

Senior Grant Breckenridge finished second in the collegiate all-around, posting a score of 79.850, including winning the event title in parallel bars (14.200) for the second straight week. The native of Libertyville, Ill. finished the night by adding a second-place finish in the high bar with a score of 13.400.

The Card captured four event titles in total on Saturday, including a career-best 14.700 in the floor exercise from sophomore Bryan Perla. That mark matches Connor Lewis' floor score to open the year as the highest by a Card this season. Stanford went first and second in the event, with Bailey Perez registering a mark of 14.600 to finish just behind Perla.

Sophomore Thomas Lee anchored the third rotation for Stanford, notching a career-best 14.300 and sticking the dismount to share the still rings event title with Cal's Harrison Plate. Lee's event title was the third of his career, with all three coming in the rings.

Showing depth in the event, Stanford took the top-three spots in the vault, with freshman Brody Malone leading the way and capturing his first collegiate event title with a score of 14.550. He was followed by Connor Lewis (14.500) and Bailey Perez (14.200) to round out the trio.

Having already topped Cal twice in as many weeks to start the year, Stanford will once again travel to Berkeley, Calif. next week to face the Golden Bears on Sunday at 6 p.m.
