(This was originally posted on my personal blog before making this one :)
Last week at school I was so very bored and so I came up with my predictions for the US Team.
Here was my original list:
Simone Biles (duh)
Kyla Ross (duh)
Mykayla Skinner (say it ain't so...)
Madison Kocian (because WOGA)
Alyssa Bauman (because who else is there)
Alt: Desch, Locklear
Vault: Ross, Skinner, Biles (backup Bauman)
UB: Kocian, Bauman, Ross (backup Biles)
BB: Kocian, Ross, Bauman (backup Skinner??)
FX: Bauman, Skinner, Biles (backup Ross)
Hmm...seems alright?? Then I remembered Locklear! The girl who
came from nowhere and has better form than the WOGA's. So I might just
switch Bauman for Locklear. But then we run into a problem for FX and
possibly beam because apparently Marta doesn't like to use her there. So
here is a revised list with Locklear:
Simone Biles (duh)
Kyla Ross (duh)
Mykayla Skinner (say it ain't so...)
Madison Kocian (because WOGA)
Ashton Locklear
Alt: Desch, Bauman
Vault: Ross, Skinner, Biles (backup Kocian?)
UB: Kocian, Ross, Locklear (backup Biles)
BB: Kocian, Ross, Locklear (backup Skinner??)
FX: Ross, Skinner, Biles (backup Kocian)
I'm pretty positive it has to be one of these two teams. I have this weird soft spot for Maddie Desch
because she was so promising as a Junior and can't seem to reach her
potential as a Senior. If she would just tighten up those floor landings
and learn to stay on the beam...
We shall know by the end of next week!
