Hi Everyone

Hi I know alot has happened since I last did a blog and I'm so sorry about my lazziness. I have a extremely busy Summer and the worst part of it I'm going to be gone during the first 3 days of the Olympics :(. But anyways if you havent heard yet the US Olympic team is...
Shawn Johnson
Nastia Liukin (If she messes this up the US I'll have more reason to hate her)
Alicia Sacramone
Chellsie Memmel
Samantha Peszek
and the lucky 6th person is...





















Bridget Sloan!!!


I would have liked to see Mattie Larson get the 5th spot instead of Samantha Peszek but with the stress fracture it didnt happen as Matha wanted no injured girls on her team. But for the 6th spot I think its great Martha took her. Plus her DTY may be higher than Sams so she may compete in the event final on that.

For the Alternates...

Jana Bieger
Ivana Hong
Corrie Lothrop

Jana and Ivana looked absolutely devestated and Corrie looked fine with where she was and shocked that she was an alternate. She probally would have never been a alternate if it wasnt for the fact Mattie announced she had a stress fracture to the public on the final day of competition. Also the rumor was the alternates were all going but not to China but to Japan but it now has been said there working on getting all girls tourist visas and they should be able to go to China. What a great story this will be for Lothrop as I dont think shes been home since being adopted.

Now onto the injurys of camp...

Will start out with Shayla Worleys broken Tibula. Shayla broke her Tibula on the balance beam in warm ups the day before the Olympic team was announced. This injury killed her Olympic dreams, even though she has hinted she may try for 2012. Good luck to Shayla on whatever decision you make.

Now Chellsie Memmel went out of bounds on her second pass and stopped her music with a whip lash. She did not compete UB or VT but nailed her BB routine. But on top of this Chellsie just had a sore neck and still made the US Olympic team.

Ok now to Mattie Larson, Mattie has apparently had a stress fracture since trials but did not want to get X-Rays as she really wanted to just get through the process. On the second day of camp Mattie could not take the pain anymore and did not compete her FX and VT where she could help the team the most but her UB. This made her Olympics a no go and Mattie was out of the runnnings. When Mattie got back to LA it was comfirmed she had a stress fracture. Poor Mattie

Now for the final news the 6 Members of the team and the 3 Alternates are currently in Texas for a final training camp. The girls will leave on the 31st for San Jose and then Beijing. Wish luck to all the girls and no injuries and Oh Yes...
