Michigan sophomore LaLo Haro recorded an all-around score of 57.100 to place fourth at the NCAA Championships at Penn State last night.

Although the Wolverines were not eligible to participate in team competition, Haro was one of six gymnasts to receive an at-large, all-around bid to the Championships.

The co-captain, who hails form Puebla, Mexico, also finished fourth on the vault to qualify for tomorrow's individual finals in the event.

Three other Wolverines concluded their season last night after failing to make the cut for tomorrow, which is limited to the top eight finishers in each event.

Freshman Kenny Keener was 15th in still rings with a 9.55, while senior Tim Lauring recorded a 9.55 on the vault to take 23rd place. All-Big Ten freshman Justin Toman finished 37th on parallel bars.

The NCAA all-around title was awarded to Illinois' Travis Romagnoli, who scored a 58.225 to beat out Berkeley's Oleg Kosyak.

Berkeley will enter tomorrow's team finals as the top seed, carrying a preliminary score of 231.425.
