Two Auburn gymnasts have been named regular season All-Americans by the National Association of Collegiate Gymnastics Coaches/Women.
Sophomore Caitlin Atkinson and Freshman MJ Rott received the honors Tuesday afternoon.
"I think the fact that Caitlin and MJ are both being recognized as a couple of the very best gymnasts in the country speaks volumes about our program and the direction it's heading now," said Auburn head coach Jeff Graba. "It's just a tremendous honor for them as well as for our program."
Atkinson, a Texas native, ranks 10th nationally with an RQS of 39.500. Her best career mark, 39.550, came against Missouri on March 7.
Rott ranks 16th nationally on the vault and recorded a 9.975 on the road at LSU on January 22, tying the Auburn program record.
