Hansen led Minnesota to 17 victories and the NCAA Regional Final
MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota head coach Jenny Hansen completed her 11th year in charge of the Minnesota gymnastics program in 2025. Hansen was named North Central Region Coach of the Year after another outstanding season in charge, leading the 'U' to a 17-7 (8-1 Big Ten) record.
Minnesota finished second in the Big Ten regular season standings and took third at the Big Ten Championships. The team made the NCAA Regional Finals for the fourth time in the last five seasons (one of just two Big Ten teams to do so) and had an individual reach nationals for the second consecutive year.
Four Golden Gophers earned All-Big Ten honors, including Mya Hooten making her five all-league team in five seasons. Jordyn Lyden, Sarah Moraw and Ava Stewart were named Second Team All-Big Ten while Stewart became the first freshman since 2021 to make the B1G All-Freshman Team.
Mya Hooten made nationals for the fourth time in her career, including her second straight year as an individual. Hooten won floor event titles in 11 of 14 meets, going 9.900-or-better 10 times. She was named First Team All-Big Ten, WCGA Second Team All-America and Academic All-Big Ten.
In the classroom, 15 Golden Gophers earned Academic All-Big Ten honors in 2024-25.
Hansen won Big Ten Coach of the Year in 2016, 2019 and 2020 but had never been named Region Coach of the Year.
