state meet

It was lil bird's last meet of the year, her state meet, and it was a great experience. She has come so far since Sept and we are very proud of her. She really wanted to make it to the podium and when she got 4 red, white, and blue ribbons I think she thought she was going to for sure, but she...

Hi Everyone, I have a meet report with video. First of all, Kayla was so excited going into this meet, that I was nervous that she was getting herself too wound up. Boy was I wrong... She was a very cool, calm, and happy competitor. 1st up was bars. She is now all connected, but still...

Little DD had her L4 state meet today. She had 5 weeks since her last meet (where she qualified for state...barely!):cool: So, we were hopeful that we would see some improvements today! She had just gotten the hang of her mill circle in the last week, was making big improvements on beam, and...

Well, the season is almost over! Older DD had her state meet on Sunday. She has had a really rough couple of weeks in gym for various reasons, and was healing up a gigantic rip on her hand all week :(...but it was mostly better in time for the meet. She has struggled a lot on vault all season...

Ok, she saw the ortho today and they are scheduling surgery for her to have her two fingers repaired. Apparently the dislocations were so close to the joint that some displacement has occurred and they want to repair that. They have mentioned "pins" but we don't know yet about that:confused...

Alex had her state meet yesterday and she rocked the bars!!! She tied for 1st with a 9.4!! So I guess that makes her the state champ? Of the 11B Level 5 group hehe!! She ended up with the silver medal because the girl she tied with had a higher all around score but who cares right? Here are...

Thank you all for the good luck wishes. My daughter was feeling much better today. Her meet, though not stellar, went well. She qualified to regionals with a 35.975 AA, and placed 3rd in the state. Also, 5th on vault and floor and 3rd on bars. She had a fall on beam, just looked off today...

Is in 2 days, and my gymnast is home throwing up!!!! I need prayers that she will be all better AND feeling strong before Sat. I knew this would happen. Level 8 state was this past weekend, and half the team had fevers, etc on Monday. At least they got sick AFTER their meet. I was like, "Stay...

It's hard to believe we just finished Level 5 State Meet...after switching gyms in Jan. DD had a great meet...35.275 AA...took 16th out of 47 girls in her age group. A fall on beam was the difference between 7th or 8th place and 16th....she had a beautiful beam (minus cartwheel...fall :( )...

Okay....most of you know we switched gyms at the beginning of Jan. Well it's already time for our state meet...daughter is getting scores between 33.5 and 34.5, we are really hoping for 35 AA, needing some good luck fairies at her meet on Saturday. She is improving and all but has been...

Not sure if this is where this should be posted but I need ideas and help! We have been chosen to host the state meet this year. This is the first time in 12 years that our gym has been asked so of course I want to do big and of course the best and this is also my first time hosting a state...

DD's L2 State Meet was yesterday. She had a great meet. She earned her highest all-around of the season with a 35.225! (her previous highest was 34.15) All the girls from dds team in her division received a 35 or higher (one 36) for the first time. They received a pin that said Elite on it for...

Sunday is my DD's level 3 state meet. It has been a long road to get to this point. She will see her old gym team mates and her coaches there. I'm worried for her that the coaches will say something, but her new coach is going with her and he's wonderful. I'm just ready to get it over with...

Well daughter survived her state meet this weekend. She has had less than 2 weeks where she has been back in the gym for full practice since her wrists were injured. I was not even sure she was going to be able to compete so I was really proud of her. I think she did really well in all the...

I am sorry I am little late in getting my DD's AAU State meet results posted. It was much better than her USAG L5 State meet last month where she had 3 falls. This meet she managed to finish in the top 3 on every event. Vault - 8.65 3rd place (Her vaults are definitely improving, but she...

Hi all, Well, Olivia had her Level 6 state meet this weekend. Mother's Day of all days. It was nice, though. They gave each of the girls a flower as they walked in during march in. They had them come up to the stands and give their moms the flower, or whomever they came with. It was sweet. And...

Well, the season is over....and what a ride. My little sparkler had that meet on the day it counted! She was first session and started on Bars....9.725 Best of the season.....Next Beam....9.7 Best of the season....floor 9.450...close and last was vault her nemesis...last meet she got a...

My DD has her L5 state meet tomorrow - need bar and beem fairies :) she has worked so hard! Thanks :)

DD went to her first state meet tonight. We weed prepared by the coaches not to expect much, they said the judges tend to be harder and we knew the competition would be stiff. I think DD did a great job! She was at vault first and scored an 8.55. Reasonable start. Next was bars, which...

My DD has her AAU L5 state meet Saturday. I am praying that it goes much better than her USAG state meet. She went from her best ever USAG meet of 37.025 (finishing 2nd by .025 out of 90 other girls) to her worst L5 meet (of course at states) falling during bars and twice on beam to get a...
