Additionally, the Card posted phenomenal scores on vault, averaging 9.73. All three all-arounders had solid nights for Stanford. Senior Keith Wiley tallied 57.5 overall, highlighted by a 9.8 on the parallel bars. Freshman Jason Katsampes put up 56.2, while sophomore Scott Finkelstein showed outstanding progress with a 56.2. However, there is still room for improvement.
Rings remain a problem for the team as scores continue to hover around the low nines.
The team will host again Saturday night when Army, San Jose State and Oklahoma pay Burnham Pavilion a visit. Although the Spartans and Cadets should be relatively easy to beat, the Sooners have topped Stanford already this season. At the Santa Barbara Invitational on March 1, Oklahoma took second place in the competition, besting the Cardinal by almost five points. Stanford scored 224.15 in its first outing without Ellis, and Oklahoma scored 229.48. Nonetheless, with the Cardinal's record of steady improvement, a win against Oklahoma at home does not seem unlikely.
