Nastia Liukin won the AA at the Pacific Rim Competition this weekend. She got her 7.7 A-Score for her bars set, and several BS execution scores for each event, and that’s about all I care to say. Jana Bieger got second place, and Daria “Dasha” Joura received 3rd.
In other news, Rebecca Bross won the junior AA and picked up 3 additional golds (one tie) for event finals. Qualifying to all four event finals, I noticed her UB score was a 9.2! (yes, total). Immediately I could only hope she was alright because that score says that she must have not finished the routine.
Well, apparently, she fell, then just ripped off the bar and fell onto her head. She supposedly seemed to be okay. Well, I guess so, because then she went on to win beam and floor. Good gracious, talk about a fighter. Truly commendable! I proclaim her winner of the day. I am waiting for youtube vids of her finals, I heard her FX score was a 15.5 or so, pretty high. Earlier this year I predicted that Bross would be the 2009 world AA champion, but I gotta look into Samantha Shapiro. And although I am not sure of ages here, isn’t it Jordyn Wieber a youngin loaded with a lot of bad assery skills? I can’t think right now.
Waiting for youtubers to get some more videos up and waiting for the senior EF to commence.
Go Rebecca Bross
