GAINESVILLE, Fla. - A national championship atmosphere awaits the eight teams at the 2025 Southeastern Conference Gymnastics Championships, set for Saturday in the Legacy Arena
The 44th edition of the SEC Championship meet makes its eighth appearance in Birmingham, Ala., since the event moved to neutral sites starting in 2001. Ten of the 23 neutral site SEC meets were won by a team located in the state of the host city (Alabama 2021, 2014, 2011, 2003; Georgia 2008, 2005, 2004; Florida 2010; LSU 2019, 2024). Each SEC Championship since 2006 has been contested on podium.
The top eight teams based on national qualifying average advance to the SEC Championship meet site. The two four-team sessions which started in 2013 continues this season. Teams seeded No. 5-8 (based on March 17 NQS) compete in Saturday's opening session at 3:30 p.m. ET followed by seeds 1-4 at 8 p.m. ET. Scores from the two sessions combine to determine the team and event champions. As the evening session's third seed, Florida chose to begin competition on floor exercise.
The four teams in the SEC Championships' final session are among the nation's top-10: No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 2 LSU, No. 3 Florida, No. 7 Missouri. League teams made up half of the nation's top 10 for eight of the last 16 SEC Championship meets, with six in 2025 the all-time high. This is the first time since 2007 the SEC Championship meet includes the nation's top three teams.

Kentucky posted its second-highest total of the season, 197.725, in front of 8,071 at the Exactech Arena at the Stephen C. O'Connell Center.

Senior All-American Leanne Wong closed her evening with the second floor exercise 10.0 of her career. That was her 10th perfect mark of her career, moving her to second on Florida's career 10.0s list.
Harris-Miranda shared the uneven bars win with sophomore Alyssa Arana at 9.95. The all-around total of 39.875 by Harris-Miranda is the nation's second-highest this season and gives her all-around win No. 4 for 2025.
