BERKELEY - The No. 2 California women's gymnastics team used a clutch  performance in the floor exercise to rally for a 197.125 - 196.850 win over No. 17 Arizona on Sunday at Haas Pavilion. 
 
The Wildcats held a 147.725 - 147.525 advantage heading into the final rotation but all-around winner eMjae Frazier and Kyen Mayhew each posted scores of 9.95 to lead the Golden Bears' floor performance. Cal finished with a team mark of 49.600 in the event with Jordan Kane (9.925), Andi Li (9.90), Ella Cesario (9.875) and Maddie Williams (9.875) rounding out the individual scoring.
 
"We absolutely had some stand out performances from eMjae Frazier and Andi Li, among others, but I was most proud of how we handled some adversity and then really had a lights out performance from everyone on floor," said co-head coach Justin Howell. "That was a great test for our team and I'm really proud of how they handled closing out the competition today."
 
Frazier also captured the beam with a 9.950 and was the meet's all-around winner with a score of 39.575. Williams won on the bars with a 9.975 that matched Arizona's Marlia Hargrove for the best individual score of the day to win the vault.
 
Cal was competing without Mya Lauzon, who ranks second in the country in four different events (all-around, vault, beam, floor).
 
"Today was an opportunity to test our depth and try out some new athletes in the lineups," Howell said. "I was incredibly proud of Miki Aderinto, Casey Brown and Jayden Silvers for making their way into some lineup spots and showcasing routines they've been working very hard on."
 
Brown gave the Bears a 9.85 in the bars and a 9.80 in the vault, while Silvers (vault) and Aderinto (beam) each contributed marks of 9.825.
 
The Bears are back in action Feb. 17 at the Metroplex Challenge in Fort Worth against No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 13 Arkansas and No. 30 Washington. The quad-meet begins at 7:15 p.m. CT/5:15 p.m. PT.
