The Most Dramatic Gymnastics Meets
You Missed in 2025

The 2025 gymnastics season delivered plenty of heart-stopping moments, and not all of them happened at the biggest, most-watched events. Among the most dramatic was Auburn's postseason journey at the 2025 SEC Championship, where a young Tigers team fought through setbacks and inexperience to finish with a 195.950—tying for seventh in a fiercely competitive field.

While not the result they hoped for, the true highlight was the team’s resilience. Senior Sophia Groth anchored the floor rotation with a dazzling 9.9, supported by consistent performances from teammates Gabby McLaughlin and Olivia Greaves. Auburn also started strong on beam with Groth scoring 9.875, but tough luck on bars (counting a fall) challenged their momentum. Despite adversity, head coach Jeff Graba praised the squad’s growth and team effort, looking ahead with optimism to the NCAA Regional Championships.

Other meets, such as Auburn’s head-to-head clashes with powerhouses like Florida and Missouri earlier in the year, provided last-minute comebacks and viral moments, making them must-see events for any gymnastics fan. These lesser-known meets often turn into the most memorable, with underdogs rising, surprising upsets, and athletes pushing through adversity.
