I hope she goes for a 10.0 vault !! Yurchenko 1 1/2 maybe??? If she is at finals I say go for the gold! You might as well go for it like Tasha did last year. Finish high or dead last but go for it!

: can't figure out the computer, so don't know
: if my last post worked, but here's my report
: of the super 6
:
: First, during prelims, I have to say, that
: the only thing I feel that separated the
: Beavs from the finals, was their own
: confidence. After observing all the teams,
: I feel that OSU is capable of the same
: gymnastics as these other teams, but they
: didn't sale their routines. They have the
: skills, presentations, amplitude,
: explosiveness. What sets Georgia apart from
: the rest is their ability to sell the
: routine, and their confidence that they are
: there to win! They have no doubts. You can
: see it in their body language, and the
: judges respond. There is no doubt when they
: step up there that they are going to do
: well, and even if they fall, they still have
: that winning attitude.
:
: Given that, I felt the scoring for the super
: 6 was ridiculous compared to thursday. They
: were just not taking deductions. I sat
: where I could see all the vault landings,
: bars (handstands) and beam. The georgia
: lady in front of me told me that the judges
: were harsh..I just laughed at her! She had
: to be joking. There were a lot of missed
: handstands, overarches, hops and big steps
: on landings, bent over bodies on vault, and
: still the big scores came in. I just
: couldn't figure it out, but maybe it's if
: you earned your way into super 6, everything
: else was ok. Utah really had nice vaults
: that were underscored compaired to what
: Georgia threw on vaults. But the gifts were
: everywhere. Georgia showed that they can be
: beat, but not in Georgia...next year should
: be interesting. Stanford did great, and I
: was cheering for them. They were steady,
: and really had beautiful routines.
:
: I'll be cheering loud for Yuki tonight. I
: don't know what her 2nd vault will be...will
: be interesting to see.

: Go Beavs
