Bowers, Davis Named Honda Sport Award Finalists
April 25, 2025 | Women's Gymnastics
NORMAN – For the first time since 2019, Oklahoma claimed two of the four nominees for the 2025 Honda Sport Award for Gymnastics. Seniors Jordan Bowers and Audrey Davis were named finalists for the honor, announced Friday by the Collegiate Women Sports Awards (CWSA).
The duo are joined by Jade Carey (Oregon State) and Aleah Finnegan (LSU) as finalists for the prestigious award. Bowers is a finalist for the second time in her career, while Davis earned her first finalist honor.
The Honda Sport Award has been presented annually by the CWSA for the past 49 years to the top women athletes in 12 NCAA- sanctioned sports and signifies "the best of the best in collegiate athletics". The winner of the sport award becomes a finalist for the Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year and the prestigious 2024 Honda Cup.
The nominees were chosen by a panel of coaches representing the National Association of Collegiate Gymnastics Coaches/Women (NACGC/W). The Honda Sport Award winner for Gymnastics will be announced later this week after voting by administrators from over 1,000 NCAA member schools. Each NCAA member institution has a vote.
Bowers and Davis helped lead Oklahoma to it's seventh overall NCAA Championship on April 19. In the Four on the Floor, Davis clinched the meet and Bowers put the exclamation point on the title as the Sooners secured their third title in the last four years.
Bowers, a Lincoln, Neb., native, has been one of the most decorated athletes to compete at Oklahoma. A part of three national title teams, Bowers was the 2025 All-Around Champion, becoming the fourth Sooner in program history to earn the title. She was the 2024 SEC Gymnast of the Year and has been named the conference gymnast of the year for two straight seasons after earning Big 12 Gymnast of the Year in 2024. After conference realignment, Bowers was the only athlete who earned gymnast of the year in two different conferences in back-to-back seasons.
After earning first team All-America honors on all four events and in the all-around, the only athlete in the nation to do so, Bowers finished her career as a 16-time NCAA All-American. She also garnered four All-SEC honors in Oklahoma's first year in the league.
An AAI Award Finalist, Bowers further cemented herself in the record books at the 2025 NCAA Seattle Regional. In the regional final, she earned not one, not two, but three perfect 10s in the same meet for the second time in her career. When Bowers achieved the feat in 2024, she was one of just five gymnasts to earn three perfect scores in one meet. When she did it for a second time, she became one of one. No other gymnast in NCAA history has earned three perfect 10s in more than one meet. The senior now has 12 career perfect 10s which ranks second all-time in program history.
Davis, an Oakland, Fla., native has been one of the most consistent gymnasts to ever compete in the Crimson and Cream. She has led the Sooners to three team national titles, while also earning a pair of individual titles in 2024. The two-time AAI Award Finalist, Davis has hit 267 of 268 career routines, including 256 in a row over the last five years, dating back to Feb. 7, 2021.
She has shown exceptional consistency on bars, recording a 9.9 or higher on 64 of 78 career routines performed. Of her 64 scores of 9.9 or higher, she has tallied twelve 9.9s, ten 9.925s, twenty-three 9.95s, two 9.9625, sixteen 9.975s and one perfect 10. She has never scored lower than a 9.80 and 10 of her scores below 9.9 are 9.875s. Davis has received at least one 9.9 from a judge on 76 of her 78 routines.
In her final year, Davis earned a career high in the all-around with a 39.725, her first ever mark over 39.700. Despite just seven appearances in the all-around in 15 meets, Davis still finished the season in the top 15 of the national rankings, coming in at No. 14. She scored no lower than 39.425 and had four marks over 39.500 in seven all-around competitions. Davis finished the regular season as the No. 1 gymnast in the nation on the uneven bars. She tallied 14 scores of 9.9 or higher this season, including nine marks of 9.95 or higher and three marks of 9.975.
The CWSA, entering its 49th year, has honored the nation's top NCAA women athletes for their superior athletic skills, leadership, academic excellence and eagerness to participate in community service. Since commencing its partnership in 1986, Honda has provided more than $3.4 million in institutional grants to the universities of the award winners and nominees to support women's athletics programs.
Bowers & Davis will look to become just the fifth Sooner to earn the Honda Sport Award for women's gymnastics. Kelly Garrison received the honor in 1987 and 1988, Maggie Nichols claimed it in 2019 and Anastasia Webb was the 2021 winner and Top Three Finalist. Keilani Ricketts (softball, 2012 & 2013) and Jocelyn Alo (softball, 2022) are the only other Sooners to have earned a Honda Sport Award.
