Clemson, S.C. – Following an extremely successful inaugural first season, Clemson gymnastics has been selected to the second-ever ESPN Events’ owned-and-operated gymnastics invitational, the Sprouts Farmers Market Collegiate Quad. The event returns in 2025 in a new location and a new group of teams.
Clemson joins five of the eight national semifinalists competing in this weekend’s NCAA National Collegiate Women’s Gymnastics Championship in the 2025 Sprouts Farmers Market Collegiate Quad field. The field includes top-seeded Oklahoma, No. 2 seed LSU, No. 3 seed California, No. 5 seed Utah and No. 10 seed Arkansas. Reigning ACC Champion NC State, Big 12 newcomer Arizona, Michigan, Ohio State and UCLA from the Big Ten and Kentucky from the SEC round out the field that will compete Jan 10-11, 2025, at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Okla.
More from ESPN: All three quad meets will be presented on ESPN platforms, with the top four teams in the field tumbling into ABC action on Saturday, Jan 11 at 4 p.m. ET. New for Year 2 of the event, the lineup for the trio of quads will be based on the final rankings after the 2024 NCAA National Collegiate Women’s Gymnastics Championship. Full details regarding teams, times and networks will be announced at a later date.
Tickets will be sold on a session-by-session basis and are set to go on sale at a later date. Fans can secure pre-sale access by signing up for the event mailing list at www.sproutscollegiatequad.com/tickets.
