00:00Typically with high-achieving athletes like Sunisa Lee, like Kyla Ross, they tend to do their best when there's the most amount of pressure.
00:11So I wouldn't be surprised if she is extra locked in knowing how much is on the line here.
00:16And she doesn't see it, but Hallie Davis's score was a 9.95.
00:20So Auburn really does need a huge one here from Lee to try to hold on to this lead going into the fourth rotation.
00:28Front arrow, her arms continue to move to get the connection. No problems on that three-series combination.
00:42Doing a good job spotting the beam.
00:51Every skill, it's like the tension builds. It's like she just has to hit another one, and then maybe one more, and potentially we'll see it.
01:00She's in the zone here, finishing up with that handspring. Gave her layup full off the beam.
01:09And it's going to be another big score for Suni and for Auburn.
01:16I think she just did it!
01:22It's her first on beam in her college career.
01:26And Sam, she is about to do something. At least that is what we have been told on bars that has never been done in college gymnastics.
01:34It's a skill that she's most known for doing at the Olympic Games.
01:39Head coach Jeff Graba said that she actually does the nabi-ebi routine three times a day more than the quote-unquote easy routine that she's been competing in college.
01:48But she's been born. She's ready to throw this difficult release move.
01:53And it just got approved in the NCAA quota points three days ago.
01:58It's absolutely incredible. It was originally added to the quota points back in 2010, so it hasn't existed for that long, even in the international stage.
02:08All right. Let's sit back and enjoy this one.
02:15When we started the coach's call, Jeff Graba said she wasn't going to do it.
02:20But by the end of the coach's call, we had convinced him that there could be a chance.
02:24And we're seeing it here tonight.
02:26She is making history again in college gymnastics.
02:30Huge nabi-ebi back up to the high bar.
02:37If she sticks this dismount, it could be another 10 for Sunisa Lee.
02:42Sturdy continuing to rewrite the record books.
