Oklahoma gymnastics: Maggie Nichols a finalist for prestigious AAI Award

OU senior Maggie Nichols is one of six finalists for the prestigious AAI Award, which recognizes the most outstanding senior female gymnast in the country.

Nichols has been a major part of the Sooner gymnastics program since coming to Oklahoma as a freshman in 2017. She won a gold medal at the 2015 Women’s World Championships and competed at the U.S. Olympic Trials before arriving at OU.

While she has been at OU, the Sooners have won two national championships (2017 and 2019), finished as a runner-up in the national championships in 2018, three consecutive regional titles and three straight Big 12 championships.
