Too poor to have a women's gymnastics team.


A decision was made to avoid gymnastics and support other women’s programs more. Only a handful of SEC schools have scholarship gymnastics programs and the return wasn’t worth the resources.

That would be eight of the current 14 schools have teams. Will add 2 more with Texas and Oklahoma. So all the SEC schools that really matter have a gymnastics team.

SEC schools win their share of nattys (Georgia-10, Alabama-6, Florida-3). Oklahoma has 6.

Do some research. Ask someone about attendance at home meets of SEC schools. I'd say the return is well worth the investment
