Cliff: Gymnastic notebook Comments

Oregon State senior Mandi Rodriguez was named the Pacific-10 Conference gymnast of the week on Tuesday.

Rodriguez won the all-around title Friday in a win over Stanford and Seattle Pacific with a season-high score of 39.475. She won a share of the vault title with a 9.900 and won the floor exercise with a 9.900.

This is the third gymnast of the week honor for Rodriguez in her career, and OSU’s 14th all-time.

Team rankings
The Beavers moved back up to ranked No. 5 country with an average score of 195.919 after defeating Stanford last weekend.

OSU is No. 6 on the vault (49.119), tied for No. 8 on the bars (48.962), No. 6 on beam (58.869) and No. 9 on floor (48.969).

Individual rankings
Makayla Stanbaugh is No. 9 in the all-around (39.294) and Mandi Rodriguez is No. 10 (39.231). Rodriguez is the only top-10 OSU vaulter at No. 7 (9.881).

Rodriguez is tied for No. 8 on the floor (9.875) and Stanbaugh is No. 12 (9.869). Stanbaugh is No. 5 on the beam (9.862) and Laura-Ann Chong is No. 14 (9.831).

Leslie Mak remains No. 2 on the bars (9.925) but she’s only done the event once. Chong is No. 4 (9.894) and Olivia Vivian is tied for No. 10 (9.862).

Pink out fallout
The Pink Out breakfast and silent auction raised more than $9,000 for The Corvallis Clinic’s work with breast and cervical cancer. More than 180 supporters were at Saturday’s event.

The schedule
OSU heads off to California on Sunday afternoon and then back in Corvallis for a home meet against Arizona on Feb. 12. The only other home contest after that one is March 19 against Kentucky.
