On Friday, Jan. 27, 2023, Florida’s Trinity Thomas earned her third perfect 10 of the season, on vault, and 23rd perfect 10 of her career. With the perfect score, Thomas moved to No. 4 all-time on the list of gymnasts with the most perfect 10s in NCAA history, passing Maggie Nichols (22), Kyla Ross (22), Karin Lichey (21) and Kim Arnold (21) all this year.
Kentucky’s Jenny Hansen and UCLA’s Jamie Dantzscher sit tied atop the list with 28 career perfect 10s, while Georgia’s Hope Spivey is at third with 24. With the 2023 season not over, ascending the perfect 10 leaders list is within the realm of possibility for Thomas as she attempts to eclipse Hansen and Dantzscher.
