Women head to Junior World Championships Selection Camp


The final two slots for the U.S. women’s team at the 2023 FIG Junior World Championships March 29-April 2 will be filled at USAG’s Junior World Championships Selection Camp, being held this Sunday through Tuesday (March 5-7) in Katy, Texas.

The 2023 Winter Cup junior all-around champion and runner up, Hezly Rivera and Jayla Hang, respectively, have automatically qualified to Junior Worlds in Antalya, Turkey.

  • Isabella Anzola, Statham, Ga./Georgia Elite Gymnastics
  • Kieryn Finnell, Pittsford, N.Y./RGA
  • Jayla Hang, Bellevue, Wash./Pacific Reign Gymnastics
  • Gabrielle Hardie, Sioux Falls, S.D./Twin City Twisters
  • Zoey Molomo, McKinney, Texas/Metroplex Gymnastics
  • Claire Pease, Sunnyvale, Texas/WOGA Gymnastics
  • Hezly Rivera, Oradell, N.J./WOGA Gymnastics
  • Simone Rose, Sammamish, Wash./Pacific Reign Gymnastics

Interesting that they’re only sending 2 to Jesolo.

ETA: I wonder what happened to Zoey Molomo? And these scores are a good bit higher than Winter Cup. “Ah, yeah, you all were a little too harsh at Winter Cup. Maybe be slightly kinder with the scores?”

can we dare to think that they want the seniors to have realistic scoring and Jessohigh was not sending the right message to make corrections.
 
Lauren Hopkins said on Twitter it was a budget issue. They planned on doing both, then decided only to do DTB.
 
I guess OOFUS and Angi’s List don’t fork out the dough.
