Becca and Bri at Nationals
Becca and Bri return to New Hampshire, having competed with the best gymnasts in the eastern half of the country. Their state and their home gym can be very proud of them. The field of competitors was even tougher than at Regionals, naturally. Only the best of the best even get to Nationals. Bri scored a 9.40 on Floor, to take 9th place in the Senior A division. Becca took 4th on Beam in the Senior C division with a 9.25. Her 9.375 on Floor tied her for 6th.
All in all, an impressive showing for Off the Wall. Congratulations Bri and Becca!

Alyssa Solid at Regionals
The Level 8 Regionals, by nature, is the collection of all the best Level 8 gymnasts in the seven states. "There was a lot of tough competition," reported Boosters chairperson Gail. Yet, in such a crowd of talent, Alyssa fit right in. Her bars routine was very clean, earning her a score of 9.425. This took 7th place in the Intermediate group. Her All-Around of 35.85 was a very respectable showing for her first trip to Regionals.
The New York team took first, handily. Massachusetts narrowly took 2nd over Connecticut. NH was only a few points behind them for 4th. It was interesting to note that Alyssa was the second-highest scoring gymnast on the NH Intermediate team. She certainly represented her state well.
Good job, Alyssa!
