STANFORD, Calif. - Stanford not only proved itself as the top men's gymnastics program in the gym by winning the 2019 NCAA title, but it has also been named the 2019 College Gymnastics Association national academic team champion with a team grade point average of 3.435.
The national academic title is the seventh for the Cardinal since the inception of the team award in 1991, and is the first for Stanford since 2013. This year marks just the third time in history that a program has garnered both the national title and academic title – with Stanford managing the feat twice (2009). Michigan also took both ends of the championship in 2010.
Defending academic champion William & Mary finished second in 2019 with a 3.412 GPA, while Minnesota took third at 3.285. Oklahoma (3.247) and Ohio State (3.177) were fourth and fifth, respectively, with Illinois-Champaign (3.150), Michigan (3.133), Navy (3.131), Springfield (3.117), and Penn State (3.080) rounding out the top 10.
