BERKELEY -

California Golden Bear gymnast Avery Gee was named to the All-Pac-10 Second Team in the All-Around in honors announced by the Conference. This is the first All-Conference recognition for the junior.

Gee competed as an all-arounder in all but two of Cal's meets this season. She scored a season-best 38.450 at the Pac-10 Conference Championships in Tucson. Gee's top event was the floor. She earned a 9.850 for her routine at the Davis meet, matching the top score of the season for any Bear in any event.

The All-Conference first team consists of the top six all-around competitors, plus the top three competitors in each event who are not among the all-around honorees. Individuals may earn All-Conference honors in multiple individual events. Scores are determined by a combination of 50 percent Regional Qualifying Score (entire regular season composite) and 50 percent Pacific-10 Conference Championships score. The All-Conference second team consists of 11 individuals who were not honored on the first team.

This is the second straight year that Cal has had a gymnast earn Second Team honors in the All-Arounder. Sophia Hocini was named to the second team in 2009.
