"Why not us?" | Interview with Cal's eMjae Frazier

This week we are looking back on the historic season that Cal Gymnastics had and we are honored to be joined by the incredible eMjae Frazier. eMjae just finished her sophomore season with the Bears but she’s already primed for the history books. As a freshman she scored the program’s first and only perfect 10 on floor and broke the all-around program record. She decided to one up herself for her sophomore season, adding two more 10s to her collection (one on beam and another on floor), as well as breaking the all-around program record that she set the previous year, twice! eMjae has been an instrumental piece to the success of the Cal team. Aside from the very first week of the season, the bears were ranked in the top three nationally, seven of those weeks they were ranked No. 2. The Bears finished with their highest NQS in program history with a 198.180, won the regular season Pac-12 championship title outright with a perfect 7-0 record for the first time in history, and of course, capped off the season finishing second at the NCAA Championships; allowing them to bring a trophy back to the Bay Area for the first time ever.
