Despite a loss to No. 1 Baylor in its second meet of the season, three members of the No. 4 Oregon acrobatics and tumbling team earned weekly recognition from the NCATA after the Ducks put up 272.780 points in the defeat.

Returning senior Haley Ellis was named an honorable mention in the Athlete of the Week category. The top/tumbler bounced back from a difficult tumbling performance against Morgan State University where she missed her landing during her pass and posted a 9.85 score in six-element tumbling. She was also a part of Oregon’s 9.90 score in the compulsory pyramid. 

Freshman Morgan Willingham earned recognition as the honorable mention in the Specialist of the Week category. A tumbler, Willingham has excelled in multiple passes in 2025; against Baylor, she scored 9.75 for her duo pass and 9.775 for her open pass as one of multiple freshmen included in the Ducks’ starting lineup in the event.

Angelica Martin, who was named Freshman of the Week after her performance against Morgan State, earned follow-up recognition as the honorable mention in the category after the Baylor meet. Martin, who competes as a base, improved her five-element acro score to 9.85. She and fellow freshman Cassidy Cu competed in a never-before used skill — where Martin holds Cu in a hand-to-hand press before sliding into a split — in the heat. Martin also helped Oregon to a 9.95 score in the compulsory acro heat.

Oregon (1-1) is on bye this week, preparing for its third home meet of the season against No. 3 Gannon (2-2) on March 7.
