During the 2023 NCAA women's gymnastics championship, Florida's Trinity Thomas secured her fifth gym slam in her final meet as a Gator. College Gym News defines a gym slam as earning a perfect 10 on every event at least once during one’s career.Â
After earning multiple perfect 10s on bars, beam and floor from 2019-2021, she needed a perfect 10 on vault to complete a gym slam. She notched three perfect scores on vault in 2022 and two in 2023 making her the all-time gym slams leader.Â
In 2019, UCLA's Kyla Ross became the first gymnast in NCAA history to earn a perfect score on each event twice in one season. Ross and Thomas join Oklahoma's Maggie Nichols (2) as the only gymnasts with multiple gym slams in their career. Â
Earlier this season, Oregon State's Jade Carey became the 13th women's gymnast to complete a gym slam.
