STANFORD – California men's gymnastics closed out its regular season Saturday with one last meet at No. 2 Stanford, sharing the floor with the Cardinal for the fifth time this year. The Golden Bears finished just .100 away from their season-best team score for a very solid outing as Stanford came out on top, 324.350-313.200.
 
Cal started off the evening on pommel horse, with leadoff man Tucker Yasunaga posting a season-best 12.550 and anchor Aidan Li taking a share of the title with a score of 13.750, tied with Stanford's Taylor Burkhart. The Bears then moved to floor, their standout event of the meet: Carter Kim set a huge season high of 13.600 to lead off the rotation, while Theodor Roald Gadderud posted a matching score to equal his own season best. Cal's team score of 54.000 was its best of the year and out-scored Stanford on the event by 1.650 points.
 
Roald Gadderud also led the Bears on vault, where he scored a 13.850, as well as on rings with his 13.450. Two Bears – Troy Nuesca and Tomo Kawada – stuck their dismounts on the latter event, with Nuesca also making his event debut and Kawada posting a tremendous save to earn the judge's green flag. Cal's high bar rotation followed up with a season-best score of 50.850, thanks to season-bests from Landon Wu (12.700), Tyler Shimizu (12.800) and Carter Kim (12.900) and sticks from the latter two. The Bears finished up on parallel bars, with Yasunaga posting the last stick of the night and Roald Gadderud posting yet another team-high score – his fourth – of 13.650.
