Well the judges were brutal is how I will start this...
I am new to this state and heard that the Nebraska judges were tough but wow.....
Okay....
Let's start with Madi...
She has improved so much in the past week with these routines... I was so proud of her.
Madi got to start on bars and did awesome till she got to the back hip circle and she fell, ugh...
7.1
then beam... wobble wobble wobble 6.6 no falls though but Emily's first ever level 4 beam routine was a 6.6 too... too weird..
then floor... I thought it looked pretty good. She seemed lost after the backward roll for a sec but other than a few bent legs and a low split leap... not bad... definitely better than Emily did her very first level 4 meet.
However, Madi scored a lousy 7.3(( I would have thought 8.5-8.7
Vault... always Madi's weakest event and first time... didn't make it... second time made it with bent knees and 7.5
they didn't do any placing at this meet just ribbons on their cards and no all around... Everyone got a teddy bear.
Madi's level 4 team also did not place... All girls are young and other teams had a lot of older girls on it.
Okay Emily...
Emily too started on bars... Almost fell on squat on when she stood up but just circled the arms but scored considerably better than last week... 8.5 and took 2nd place
Then scratch on beam again only one more meet for her to qualify to compete state Damn back walkover fear.
Floor... gorgeous routine for Emily and much better than last week which was an 8.45 but mean judges... 8.15... 3rd place. I would have given it a 8.65-8.85
Vault... mmmmm steps seemed off today on both vaults...
8.725 and 2nd place.
So if we could just get beam moving we are looking like high high 33s to 34 all around and maybe if we got rid of a few bent knees on bars which is a new little tap swing habit, ugh.... and get those darn casts and clear hip higher we would be in the 9s. I think beam could definitely be in the low 9s if we got out back walk over and vault I know can be So I am hoping we can get this back walk over for the next meet which is a home meet and then nail everything and get like a 35 AA
Okay That's our meet report... Videos are at youtube...
I missed Madi's bars by accident but dad got them just he went to Texas today so I am sure it will be a week before I see those.
