Vault

Gymnast Type/Value Score Commentary
Shannon Hrozek Yurchenko layout 9.800   9.675 She was prepping for the Yurchenko 1/1 vault that she will be throwing in the next week or two.  Landed very well, nice form maintained throughout flight and slight shift of left foot on landing to check. 
Stephanie Kite Front Pike 9.900 9.750 One hop on the landing but a nice-looking vault overall. A little leg separation during the flight cost her as well.
Dana Pierce Yurchenko 1/1 10.000 9.875 Legs together during flight and a solid landing, one foot check only.
Lauren Holdefer Front Pike 9.900 9.800 A powerful vault in the air, with very nice height, form and distance; a step forward on the landing.
Kristin Sterner Half off front full layout 10.00 9.750 She jammed this vault a bit on the landing and had to take a few steps back to stop her momentum.
Jeana Rice Yurchenko 1/1 10.00 9.950 Another great vault from the steady junior.  Barely shifted on the landing.
Total   49.125  

Uneven Bars

Gymnast Score Commentary
Shannon Hrozek 9.850 This was a terrific routine, no separation at the ankles this week on the Gienger release, which was way above the high bar.  She landed the double tuck chest high, no movement.  We thought this routine was underscored since she also reached all of her handstands and had smooth transitions and tight form throughout.
Michelle Reeser 9.125 Missed her release move this week (Tkatchev) after starting the routine off with tighter form on her giants.  Small step on her reverse tuck off the high bar.
Dana Filetti 9.875 Excellent routine; barely missed one handstand and had a terrific Gienger release.  Got great distance from the bars on her dismount of the double front but was deducted likely for the cowboying of her rotation spin.
Kristin Sterner 9.825 This score confused us after watching several replays of the tape, as there were no major deductions that we could find.  Deduction Guesses: slightly crooked on the Tkatchev release from straight on angle and just off center a bit on the landing of the double front?
Larissa Stewart 9.875 The first handstand uprise after mounting the high bar was perfectly vertical and she completed both inverts and the Tkatchev release with no problems.  The double layout dismount was stuck cold.  Deductions likely occurred for missing her handstand on the transition to the low bar and twisting early on the second invert as she moved into a giant combination prior to her release.
Jeana Rice 9.925 Just slightly missed vertical on the first giant uprise but the rest of the routine was super, including a stuck full-in dismount with both revolutions above the high bar. 
Total 49.350  

Balance Beam

Gymnast Score Commentary
Michelle Reeser 9.700 She bent at the waist on her second flight series element (layout) and did not combine it with the Korbut (third element).  She adjusted immediately by doing a straddle jump to immediate Korbut (fish flop) and the only other deduction we saw was a scoot on the landing of the bhs to gainer layout.
Dana Pierce 9.900 Super two-footed bhs to layout and the cartwheel to gainer layout dismount achieved great distance from the beam.
Shannon Hrozek 9.825 Solid routine overall but she lost the higher score after a balance check on the landing of her first switch leap (flight series was perfect).  She stuck the double twist dismount but had to bend at the knees a bit to accomplish this. 
Larissa Stewart 9.750 She increased the difficulty of her dismount this week (running front full) and took slight step on the landing.  The rest of this routine was solid, including the flight series (bhs-bhs-layout) and she threw a switch leap to ¾ wolf and then a tuck full (not combined, so lost the extra bonus).  Two front aerials in combination were completed with ease.
Jeana Rice 9.775 Uncharacteristic bobble on her flight series, third element (layout) when she bent at the waist after initially seeming to nail it.  Rest of routine looked great, including a double twist dismount, stuck.
Kristin Sterner 9.850 She was experiencing some fatigue after vault and completed this routine without the front tuck mount and the wolf to standing pike combo.  Double pike dismount looked very good.
Total 49.100  

Floor Exercise

Gymnast Score Commentary
Lauren Holdefer 9.700 Stepped back twice and once out of bounds on her opening double pike pass; completed the second and third double backs with no problems.
Alexis Brion 9.625 Tide fans present were just happy to see her back on the floor.  She had too much height and power on the opening double tuck (both revolutions above Bryan's head) and stepped just over the line on her landing.  Will upgrade to a second double back in the upcoming weeks.  Some new dance moves were debuted to her same music from last year.
Shannon Hrozek 9.850 Nice routine, step back on the opening double pike pass and a slight step forward on the final pass of a double tuck to check.  She appears to be more confident now with the new dance moves Dana has choreographed.
Stephanie Kite 9.900 She threw the front, double full, punch front combo as her opening pass and landed it well.  Perhaps a deduction for being slightly off center on this very difficult pass.
Jeana Rice 9.900 Solid routine, double pike, whip to 2 ½, whip to double full.  A little under-rotation of the final element of her second pass was likely deducted for execution error.
Rachael Delahoussaye 9.675 Great dance but we noticed that this routine was adjusted to help her have more stamina at the end by reversing her first and second passes and combining them at the beginning.  One tenth for just stepping out on her third pass.
Total 49.025
