At the American Flyers Cup competition, the level 7s got off to a tough start. For whatever reason, all their scores for floor were fully a half point or more off of their usual performance. (El Nino?)
They didn't let a rough start throw them off. They all came on strong in the next event (vault). Alyssa took first in the 11 & 12 yr olds with a 9.50. Allison took 2nd and Kayla took third. In the 13 and older group, Alexis took 2nd with a 9.45, Jess 3rd and LaNaya 4th. In Bars and Beam Alyssa took both firsts in 11,12s. Alexis took first in the 13+ group. Melinda also took home a medal for her performance on bars.
In the All-Around, Alyssa took first, Allison second, with Kayla taking the 5th place medal. In the 13s, Alexis took first, LaNaya 4th, Jess 5th.
Despite the tough floor scores, the team rallied to take home the second place team trophy. Great job girls!
In the handstand contest before the awards LaNaya and Alexis were tied in the final round. Both held stag positions for a long time, and were beginning to wobble. LaNaya held on just a bit longer to win the handstand bar prize.
