In their opening meet against Iowa State, the Tigers earned the second highest score in the country with a 197.300.

LSU will face No. 1 Oklahoma, who opened with a 197.550 along with No. 4 Utah and No. 6 California. 

Senior Aleah Finnegan and freshman Kailin Chio led the Tigers to victory in the all-around on Friday. Finnegan made her first all-around appearance since March 15th, 2024 and posted a 39.725 on the night, which was the highest all-around score by an LSU Gymnast on an opening night.
