• Source: 1942 NCAA gymnastics championships

    • The 1942 NCAA gymnastics championships were contested at the fifth annual National Collegiate Athletic Association-sanctioned men's gymnastics championships to determine the team and individual national champions of men's collegiate gymnastics among its member programs in the United States.
    The championships were hosted by the United States Naval Academy at Macdonough Hall in Annapolis, Maryland which marked the first time the event wasn't hosted by the University of Chicago at Bartlett Gymnasium in Chicago, Illinois.
    Three-time defending champions Illinois, led by coach Hartley Price, successfully defended their title and won the program's 4th straight and 4th overall team championship.
    The individual all-around championship went to Newt Loken from Minnesota.
    Due to the onset of World War II, this would be the final NCAA men's gymnastics championships until 1948, six years later.
