I can’t say enough nice things about Nola. She was at her gyms level 10 state championship sessions this year, pulling boards and mats, cheering on her teammates. She is the best.

Agree Zhou deserves to be there for her UB

Based on this comp Worlds team: Wong/Rivera AA Blakely UB/BB Roberson VT/Fx (pending ankle) Hang or Sullivan alt Simone Rose having no super strong event really leaves her out right?

I so want to root for Laurie but she is like a wooden marionette that just become human this morning and is learning how to speak like a real girl.

Wow! If Wong had done that vault day 1 she would have been 0.325 ahead of Rivera!

A Pan Ams team with Moreau, Bullock and Crain could have been pretty impressive!

I am surprised that the alternate isn’t an AA’er, with Burkhart and Richard essentially interchangeable on HB. So if Hong gets injured, there will be no AA’er? Does the US see no value in sending someone capable of making a AA final? What is the purpose of Burkhart as alternate over Richard?

If Fred would have hit 14.65 both days on HB and won the event would he have for sure made the team? If so who would have been left off?

Ugh I fear your are right. She could not have made a better case for herself as alternate if she tried. Not quite good enough on any event to make a final…could make an AA final if a USA gymnast in front of her goes down.

I really enjoyed the women’s AA final. Great to see the Japanese women do so well and very happy to see Paullssen excelling with her new team. Excited to see her next year in NCAA, she has just the right combination of artistry, execution and difficulty to shine there.

Sarah Lee has switched her commitment from Kentucky to Cal for this fall.

That was a really nice Y1.5 from Jade Vansteenkiste!

Yep, beam and vault scoring seemed pretty legit here. Bar and floor not so much.

I’m inclined to place a little more blame on her co-leader who is also a brevet judge.
