Congratulations! And that's a HUUUUUUUUUGE score for junior.

Thank you! After 5 sessions she ended up tying for the 1st place AA spot (with another Lily out of WCC), 2 senior elites from WCC had scores higher than her. Pretty good for her first junior elite qualifier!!!

She also did it without a double twisting yurchenko (at this meet). You can score 52.5 without a double twisting yurchenko, but it's ridiculously hard. Around 5 do it every year, and L had cushion.

National team for juniors traditionally starts between 52.5 and 53.3 over a 2-day average.

Lily competed in her first elite national qualifier today and she achieved her goal. With a score of 52.7 she is officially a junior elite gymnast! Never been more proud of her. Can't wait to see what 2020 and beyond has in store for her!

Congratulations, Lily! That's awesome!

Congratulations! I knew it was coming soon and I’m so happy for her!

One of my daughters old teammates qualified there too. That girl didn’t even join a competitive gym until she was training level 8 in 2016! She had to relearn how to even do a kip when she came at that time. I’m so excited for her that in 4 years she went from that to Jr. Elite. She’s also a “Lily”, I’m sure your daughter met her. She’s a super sweet girl and I hope they enjoy this ride together!

Congrats again!!!!

They didn't meet since they were in different sessions but it was interesting to see that two Lily's both tied for the highest junior elite all around scores at that meet!

Oh wow! I didn’t know they tied for first. How many junior elites are there, out of curiosity?
