Caleb Rickard

While the Bears were bested in competition, the team finally proved it could stand strong — Cal gymnasts hit 28 of their 30 routines.

Cal tends to falter at high-pressure meets, but with virtually nowhere to go but up, fans might see the team’s scores fly this weekend.

After ending their last meet knowing they had more to give, the Bears look to wrap the season up nicely starting with their final meet at home in Haas Pavilion.

Cal men’s gymnastics ripped through its previous season-high score 393 with 401.150, which was accompanied by legions of season bests and personal records.

After persevering through multiple obstacles thrown its way, the Cal men’s gymnastics is close to breaking the 400-point mark for the first time since 2019.

The Cal men’s gymnastics team, clad in blue and gold, stood out against the army of red and white that made up No. 2 Oklahoma and No. 1 Stanford.

Three spots to compete in the 2022 Winter Cup, a qualifying event for this year’s U.S. Gymnastics Championships, are up for the taking at the Stanford Open.

The blue and gold gave their 100% and began their season on a roll with a marginal victory – 382.100-310.900 over SC United — and eight athletes beating their personal records that night.

Everything seemed to suggest that Caleb Rickard was a flawless athlete. But the details I collected about the gymnast transformed my perception of him.

Rickard made history with his school record on vault, which earned him a tie for fifth in the finals, as well as All-American honors.
