How the teammates are so happy for her that they cry, my heart
I think they’re crying because they won the Championship but either way it is cute
TheGleeVids i don’t know anything about gymnastics lmao. They said “a great way to finish her career” I just thought they were happy for her to get a 10 on her last performance. It does make more sense for them to be crying because they won nationals.
It’s cuz if she wins a 10.00 that brings her title up
ha my team would never 🥲
God loves you
Her and Kaitlyn Ohashi on the same team. GG.
And Nia Dennis. Her floor routine was so good :)
Isaiah - And Kyla Ross and Madison Kocian. And get this, coached by Jordyn Wieber 👀
God loves you
and gracie kramer:)

Everyone looks so happy and genuinely excited. Not to say elite gymnast don't enjoy it, it just seems like at the collegiate level they tend relax and enjoy the moment while still getting the job done.
Different sports
Much different.. you usually only get 1 chance. And it’s for all the marbles. Some ppl need to stay in that zone
Yes indeed maybe because they only represent thier school while the other represnts thier country
I think its considered bad etiquette to react this way to winning at the Olympic level. Not saying its bad but I'm guessing they're supposed to be more composed since its an international affair.
That's exactly what a lot of gymnasts have said.
You can definitely tell the haters on this thread don't know the sport is actually called "Artistic Gymnastics." This is the ncaa where the scores are focused on execution instead of difficulty. There's no way one could consistently land standing Arabians on beam or amanar vaults when the ncaa rules max your training hours at 20/week. This kind of gymnastics is about presentation and crowd participation in your floor routine (not just awkward clapping like in elite) and toe points/perfect handstands/stuck landings. Stop being lame and go find something more worthy of your negative energy🙄🤷🤦
"Presentation gymnastics" is a better name for it, I think. Or even "entertainment gymnastics". Personally, college level gymnastics is not for me, as I am more interested in difficulty, as I find it to be much more representative of their athletic skill, but I can understand why people prefer this level for its sheer entertainment value alone. I personally feel as if focusing on entertainment is a way to gloss over the fact that these athletes cannot compete with elite standards- which they shouldn't have to, it's their own way of doing gymnastics! I'm just frustrated that people find college level gymnastics to be so much 'better' than Olympic level, because athletically, it's objectively not. After all, it's... college level sports. You can enjoy it, you can have fun, but of course the Olympians are going to be better, because they're literally elites.
@@floraleia college and elite are different things. Also, the majority of those competing in college are retired elites and level 10 gymnasts. So this idea that they can't do the harder moves just just absurd. Most elite gymnasts train 40+ hours/week and compete maybe 5-7 times/year. The college season requires them to be full-time students/compete almost every week from january-april. No human being could take the kind of pounding that elite skills would take on their bodies if they had to train that much and compete that much. i enjoy both elite and college gym because they are different. I mean, i literally won't watch a joyless elite floor routine unless simone biles is doing it🤷 but i also hate to see so many gainer fulls off beam in college. It a mixed bag either way but gymanstics is my jam
@results u literally spelled out the difference in ur first comment, so 1st of all ty but 2nd of all how anyone could find it in themselves to still find a way to be negative is confusing/baffling
@@floraleia Well the reality is you are not going to be able to fill an entire college system coast to coast with athletes at the elite level so I appreciate the sport having a more artistic emphasis. College gymnastics is to elite what college football is to the NFL. It's just in gymnastics college isn't the feeder system into professional sports.
If you don’t like college gymnastics, why are you watching this???
I can’t even. She won that for them, and at her last comp ever! I got chills
Me too.
Still emotional watching this. The pure joy of the team...the fact that it was the LAST routine of her career! Wow, simply amazing
Why was it the last?
@@eora5142 that was her last year of college.
@@jld7732 thanks! I don't know much about sports and I wondered if maybe she got injured or something!
I've never seen someone look this happy doing a beam routine. This was so heartwarming.
""She might as well be on the sidewalk"" great line
One of the most clutch performances in any sport that I have seen. The very last performance of her competition career, no less.
What a passionate and fearless gymnast.
She looked light as a feather performing on the beam. Congratulations UCLA!
It was like she was doing a floor routine but just happened to be on a beam!
Collegiate level moves at a different pace than olympic level. Not good to compare.
Who's comparing tho?
Hyun Min a few people in the comment section.
They cant complete with elite!
Linda Selander most of these girls came from elite before going to college. Why watch college gymnastics videos just to say they can’t compete with elite?? That’s such a weird thing to comment here 🤷♀️
@@msalyssababy oh, ok didnt know that!😄
The confidence and support these young women show for each other is a testament to the kind of coaching they are recieving. Whatever Coach Val is doing needs to be studied and passed on to all sports. You build championions not just by training the body, but by building the mind too. Practice, confidence and support will get the best out of anyone.
Most definitely!
How can she be so confident and enjoy in such pressure, it's amazing.
I met her at a meet once and she was amazing! She told us how to push through injuries and encouraged us to never give up. She was so nice!
i can’t even begin to comprehend the amount of stress i’d be under if i was in her position, she’s literally insane!!!!! so well deserved!!
That split jump was gorgeous!
Oh my word. I love these happy athletes! It brings me joy to see them joyfully execute their craft!! I will watch Christine Peng Peng Lee on repeat!
This showed up in my recommended, I clicked on it, began to rinse dishes and load the dishwasher. I stopped, watched, and then cried tears of joy as if I knew her. Amazing! I no nothing about the sport but I know perfection when I see it. Shes great! Congratulations to her! MAY GOD BLESS HER, HER FAMILY, COACHES AND TEAM! This was a JOY to watch!
Thanks for posting! Now back to my dishes! LOL!
Peace, Lynne 🍃💜🍃
The best thing about this for me is how happy the girls are for each other, it does seem so genuine here, it’s just nice to see.
The look on her face when she stuck her dismount! And everyone’s reaction 😭
Creativity gets it done. It's not always about difficulty. She got it done. Great job
The poise, the precision, the RHYTHM, the CONFIDENCE, the CROWD ENGAGEMENT!! Even without reading the title you could tell this routine was gonna be a perfect ten in the first 10 seconds.
I'm used to seeing the much more difficult Olympic caliber routines so it's hard for me to view this subjectively and give it a 10 when the Olympic athletes are doing way crazier skills. Still, I think some of those Olympic caliber athletes could stand to learn from Peng Peng's presentation skills. And that twirl at lightning speed on the beam was insane!!
She is AMAZING
Stone W Good news: you don’t need to view it subjectively and give it a 10. The judges already did.
The fact is this is based on skill level. In world competitions these girls wouldn’t score anywhere as high as they would on the ncaa level because their is technically a performance gap between the two. The NCAA has lower standards but she’s just at the highest end of that standard.
Tiana Joiner preach.
This is so much more entertaining than Olympic gymnastics. Women are hotter and they seem to enjoy what they’re doing a lot more.
I'm a noob at gymnastics but even I could tell that her performance was gorgeous. She absolutely deserved winning.
what a performer! that team support is so amazing
I love the UCLA girls so much. Their energy is contagious and they genuinely look like they’re having fun!! 💗
well, damn. That may be the best double turn I have ever seen. So smooth and without an ounce of fear or hesitation.
Her "inner spirit animal" is a core of STEEL! Holy crap. Amazing!
jessiknows How is steel a spirit animal
Crouching Tiger
2:18 when they all jumped high I was so happy for them I never felt so happy over the screen before🥺💖
What's the opening move she did called? Jaw-dropping ... Isn't that a move from men's gymnastics? Granted, I'm a basketballer not a gymnast, so I could be way off 😂
They're called 'Thomas flares' or 'Thomas-flair' (people spell it differently, dunno why). Named after the gymnast Kurt Thomas who performed it in international competition first. Performed (by men) both on pommel horse and on floor, and since Peng Peng also on the balance beam :D She also did it in elite gymnastics when she represented Canada on the international stage.
@@SuAva Sooo cool! Thanks for the detailed response :) I've seen men do it on the pommel horse and was so surprised and delighted to see her perform it on the beam 😄
justalittlebitmo what is the d-value ?
@@flyingdana2317 I'm not sure. I tried looking it up, but only found it listed for men as a Group II maneuver but no listed D score... Maybe someone else will see this thread and have an answer
@@justalittlebitmo Don't quote me, but I think it's a C
Beautiful, she makes it look so effortless! Congrats Peng Peng!
One of my favorite moments in sports history.
I know nothing about gymnastics....but This gave me goosebumps!!
That's one magical talented beautiful..
Group of Women.
Just Amazing
This is my comfort routine.
One of the few 10's in Womens' college gymnastics that was actually deserved.
A 10 is never deserved. What if the next girl did better?
@@nicepairofslacks8769 she was in the last anchor spot for UCLA in the 6th rotation of the competition there was no one going after her, also its usually only the 2 anchor spots who tend to get the 10's just for that reason
@@nicepairofslacks8769 excuse me?? that 10 was absolutely deserved..she was the anchor for a reason...
@@jlyfan What do you give someone that does better? I’m not saying she didn’t deserve a 9.9.
@@nicepairofslacks8769 do you know anything about college gymnastics? or her? She was one of the best collegiate beamers in the country. That night she was the very last athlete to go during the entire competition so no one could have done better than her and even if they did (which I highly doubt they would) the score would hopefully reflect that. As to your last sentence I don't get it because she didn't get a 9.9 she got a 10
I think college judges often give perfect 10 scores that are definitely not deserved, but this one was deserved 100%. Outstanding!
Exactly what I think too. It’s actually disappointing to watch that many routines that actually have one or more clear deductions get ten anyway. With the current level, THIS routine should be given more than 10.
- 10,1-10.2 perhaps. - Not only are there nothing to deduct, but
1. she jumps higher than others in her backflip
2. and in her split jump
3 and her dismount lands so perfect so nobody is doubting that she’ll plant it.
This gave me chills. In a good way
she has so much talent and her friends are amazing
This was the most pressure anyone could be under in sports. National championships, senior year, deciding routine of the meet, last routine of her career... the list of things adding to the pressure goes on and on. She legitimately had zero room for error and did a turn literally everyone else in the world struggles with. You will not find anyone who does a double turn often who doesn't often have balance checks.
In elite, there's always a maybe when it comes to mistakes because E scores aren't consistent. With Peng Peng, she couldn't do literally anything wrong. Obviously NCAA is more lenient, but you will not get a judge to give you a 10 on beam at nationals with a slight wobble or step. I still do not understand how the hell she was able to pull this off.
Yeah, in this competitions their we're 6 judges, drop the highest and the lowest score from the judges and average the middle, that means she would've needed at least 5 judges to give her a 10
The way she throws her head back, the joy!!
IMPERIAL PERFORMANCE from THE CLUTCH PRINCESS !!!!
10 X2. Legend. Clutch. Perfect!
With the entire stadium watching and waiting for her score....she basically hit a bases loaded, grand slam in the bottom of the 9th for the walk off win!! What a great memory to keep for life!!
I cried that day when she got 10....i was in the crowd
i love moments like this omg im bawling
Back to watch this and I still cry every time. So sad we won't get to see this years seniors get the chance to fight at NCAA
That was beautiful performance💕
Great job. Already watched this video more than 10times. Still not tired of it. Well done Peng Peng Lee
I’ve watched this so many times as well!
Oh wow she’s so amazing 😍❤️
This is awesome!!!’ Congratulations 🎉
They are on FIRE!
She makes it look so easy... Amazing !
Those girls, the whole team is phenomenal! You can't help but love them!
Stunning.
You can tell some of y'all just watched this video just to bash it. I'm not getting why it's so hard to understand that collegiate gymnastics and elite gymnastics are 2 different things with different standards, when it's painfully obvious. She met the difficulty for COLLEGIATE STANDARDS which is why she got the perfect 10, if you like elite gymnastics then ok that's cool, but trying to downplay these young women's talents knowing damn well some of y'all can't even do a fraction of what y'all see, is not cool.
Well said...the majority of those comparing to elite routines don’t realise or understand in college they compete weekly and have at least 12+ meets in the season, and takes a toll on the body. So doubt a team of elites would all last a full season if they performed their elite routines without injuries or being sidelined.
@@pkblade yes and above all that haft to travel, study, keep up with their social life, look after their body, keep up with their grades etc.
This makes me cry every single time.
Thanks for watching!
I cried. 😭 so happy for them 😁
Can’t believe I got to watch this in front of me. Even better in person!
She’s so incredible! That’s mount was so cool!
Wow! Some people want to, other people can do!! 💜🇿🇦
Beautiful moment. I saw that!
I love seeing them get excited like that. Especially maddie.
So beautiful!!!
Congratulations everyone!!!🙏
Aqui do Brasil: parabéns. Perfeita!!!
So much fun to watch this!!
Just amazing 😍
Now if only the NCAA would pay or at least allow these athletes to monetize their talents 🙄
Scholarships....?
@@snowfall221 name,image,and likeness wasn't allowed but I think this month it was allowed basically college athletes couldn't take any money or anything for free..so like if someone wanted to give you a free sandwich because you won the game winning point you weren't allowed to accept it but now you can.something with your name or image you can profit off of it
OMG I was so happy when UCLA beat out Oklahoma-side note I still love my LSU Tigers- but Peng-Peng was lights out on the beam.
anyone watching this in after 2021 regional not ready to let pulla go... in gonna cry like pulla now
absolutely love this!!!
she is amazing!!!!!
Chills all over again!
Beautiful!
Inner spirit animal 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄..congratulations ladies🥇🥇

That would be brought me to tears except I was just so awestruck and delighted. The tears came when my blue & gold girls took it home with that 10 *WOW*
Wow. Incredible 👏👏👏👏👏
This was a Dream Team, they were a lot of fun to watch
That dismount was FLAWLESS HOLY WHAT THE WOW 😳🤯🤩

I love how you see Chris Waller SPRINT once she sticks it
Goosebumps all over my body
Down to the fingertips: so good. ✨🥳
Fantastic!
Beautiful.
The fact that she involved a bit of men’s gymnastics in the beginning 😌👌
One of my all time best beam performances. I watched her at .25 speed and she was near perfection. Such a beautiful lady.
Chills everytime.
She is very very very very very good 😍👍👏👏👏👏👏
UM I AM HERE CRYING HOLY CRAP WHAT A MOMENT
