2024 US Classic: Hartford

[Passion]

Could gabby petition right to nationals?

No, not without doing something at one of the Classics.

 

[irichluck21]

Still no McClain and interestingly no Douglas.

 

[RedBirdie]

No WOGA gymnasts at all.

No WOGA gymnasts at all.

Is there some reason they might want to send in the application late?

Someone whose participation is up in the air and that they want to hide?

It's not Douglas — she has said explicitly she is going......

Maybe someone is in the process of transferring? Either in or out

 

[irichluck21]

The registration deadline isn't until May 3rd, I believe.

The deadline to register for the US Classic isn't until May 3rd, so they can register any time between now and next Friday and it won't be late.

They had Rivera and Pease in Italy last week, Madray Johnson in Colombia for Pac Rims right now, Douglas and Bradford at American Classic tomorrow. They might just be waiting for everyone to get back home to decide who needs/wants to compete at US Classic before they register everyone together.

Blakely and Lincoln haven't competed since Winter Cup, I can't see them both missing US Classic in an Olympic year. Nationals matters too much to skip the warmup.

 

[RedBirdie]

Full roster is out. Gabby and Konnor are on it.

Last three Olympic champions lead legendary list of registrants for 2024 Core Hydration Classic • USA Gymnastics

For the first time in history, a gymnastics competition is expected to see three Olympic all-around gold medalists compete head-to-head as Gabby Douglas, Simone Biles and Suni Lee all have registered to compete at the 2024 Core Hydration Classic May 17-18 in Hartford, Connecticut.

Assumed price following this announcement: $8k per session for a shot at the nosebleeds, a raffle, and signing over your firstborn, for the meet to ultimately end up with 30% attendance

Oh my God!
Tyler Turner at WOGA!!!

 

[crdubb17]

Oh my God!
Tyler Turner at WOGA!!!

I’m assuming she’s at the Frisco location with Evgeny based on her interactions with Kaliya. I wonder if they moved for the parents’ jobs or something separate from gymnastics.

 

[RedBirdie]

Good catch, Ginger. I missed that. According to her USAG bio page, she's at Frisco with Marchenko.

Kaliya Lincoln was at Airborne prior to moving to WOGA too, iirc.

 

[irichluck21]

Wonder if Konnor is with LSU? I can't imagine she would have a club gym.

 

[RedBirdie]

Yes, Konnor is listed as LSU. Give me a few minutes and I'll paste the list into a post.

Holy smokes that roster. Even beyond the Olympians, that's a packed meet! Basically a pre-nationals nationals and I can't wait.

 

[Jerkin]

Crazy to see the last three Olympic AA champs on the same list...

 

[Laura722]

Wonder if Konnor is with LSU? I can't imagine she would have a club gym.

Courtney McCool Griffeth is accompanying her to the meet.

 

[06gymnast]

How are they splitting the seniors?
