Great state meet! DD is still floating on air. Started on bars, good clean routine, nothing spectacular, but she hit all of her elements. Did drag her feet a bit coming out of her straddle back. 8.675. She needed to average 8.5 on each event to get a 34 to qualify. Easily do-able!
Next up on beam, a couple of little wobbles, 8.750. Great! She is right on target.
Floor was great, her coach actually said it was her best of the season (she usually averages around 9 on floor) but she came away with a 8.850. OK, still good.
So we did the math and figured out she needed a 7.7 on vault. Well, she is the very last vaulter of the day and walks away with a 9.275! I am so giddy with excitement I do the happy dance all the way back to my seat! I must have looked like a fool but I didn't care!
So AA 35.550 good for 4th place! Excellent! Now she has three weeks until regionals. And she is so ready! Good luck to all at regionals!
