The best female gymnasts in NCAA sports have entered the chat. Jordan Bowers (Oklahoma), Jade Carey (Oregon State), Audrey Davis (Oklahoma) and Aleah Finnegan (LSU) are their sport’s four Honda Sport Award nominees.
The Honda Sport Award is a prestigious achievement, recognizing the top female athletes from 12 NCAA-sanctioned sports. Each of these sports receives four nominees, and the 12 winners of the Honda Sport Award are automatically in the running for the Honda-Broderick Cup award, which represents the Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year. The last gymnast to win the Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year was the University of Alabama’s Kim Jacob in 2014.
Two 2025 National Champions, Two 2024 Olympians
Jade Carey (Oregon State) is a finalist for the Honda Sport Award for the fourth time in her career. Carey, the 2021 and 2024 Olympian, has had a jam-packed year following her Paris Games run. She jumped right back into the NCAA, where she was ranked No. 1 in the regular season for both balance beam and all-around while posting the highest all-around score in the NCAA in 2025 with a 39.925. During the season, Carey also earned four perfect tens and won the 2025 AAI Award–which is considered the Heisman Trophy of gymnastics.
