PROVO, Utah – Three BYU gymnasts have been named to the 2025 Big 12 Gymnastics Preseason Team, the league announced Friday afternoon.
Honoring gymnasts in four events and the All-Around, six programs were represented among the 31 selections. Selections were voted by head coaches who could not vote for their own gymnasts. A tie in floor created an extra position.
Sophomore Brynlee Andersen was named to the Preseason Beam Team, while fifth-year senior Anna Bramblett-Wilde earned a spot on the Preseason Bars Team and senior Sophie Dudley secured a position on the Preseason Floor Team.
Brynlee Andersen
The Orem, Utah native earned a lot of recognition in her first year on the BYU gymnastics team, earning a unanimous selection to this year’s preseason team for beam. Andersen competed on beam in every meet in the 2024 season, earning a career-and-team high beam score of 9.975 against Ohio State. She earned Big 12 Newcomer of the Week in week 10 and scored a 9.8 or higher in 13 of the 15 meets, qualifying her for regionals as an individual competitor on the balance beam.
Anna Bramblett-Wilde
The Prescott Valley, Arizona native decided to return for a fifth season following a career high season in 2024. Bramblett-Wilde competed on the uneven bars in every meet last year, earning a new career-and-team high 9.950 on the event at BYU’s first-ever Big 12 Gymnastics Championship. She qualified for regionals as an individual competitor on bars.
Sophie Dudley
The Plano, Texas native competed on vault and floor in every meet last year as one of BYU’s staple competitors. She also competed on beam in six meets, achieving a season-high 9.850 against Ohio State. Dudley earned new career highs on both vault (9.850) and floor (9.925) last year.
