The Olympic team hasn’t been selected yet, and won’t be until the end of this month, but the Olympians in the field seem to already be fostering that team chemistry. Simone came over to root Suni on on bars during Rotation 2 before her floor routine. Then, during Simone’s set, Jordan was running around to the corners where she was landing, cheering for her, and Suni was also on the side of the floor. Jordan and Suni shared a hug after. Jade was over on beam during that rotation, but she’s been spending time with them as well. Something to be said about veterans who already have Olympic experience.

Suni’s day concludes with a 55.750 in the all-around, currently third but will go down a couple spots probably. That’s with a watered down (for her) bars set and room to improve on other events.

Double pike. 13.700.

Fri. May 31 @ 8:02 p.m.

Skye Blakely (WOGA) FX: Full-twisting double layout, big bounce and believe two feet OOB, flag definitely up. Seems like she fell sliding into her wolf turn. She got back up and did it just fine, but don’t think that was part of the choreo. FHS double front, hop back. Double back, small hop. 13.200.

Fri. May 31 @ 7:59 p.m.

Suni Lee (Midwest) FX: Double layout, small hop. L-turn looked a bit wonky. 1.5 to front full. Triple wolf turn. Double back. Excellent set from Suni who has room to improve but is still looking strong. 13.250.

Fri. May 31 @ 7:26 p.m.

Looked like Joscelyn Roberson hit bars, her weakest event, and threw an excellent full-twisting double layout dismount.

Fri. May 31 @ 7:23 p.m.

Trinity Thomas has scratched vault. USAG is checking if it’s just vault or the remaining events.

Fri. May 31 @ 7:04 p.m.

Trinity Thomas (Florida) FX: Full-twisting double layout, short and she falls forward touching the floor. Front full through to layout. Double wolf turn. Double layout, way too under-rotated and stays on her knees. Doesn’t finish the routine (just the ending pose really). Walks off of her own accord.

Fri. May 31 @ 6:32 p.m.

March in about to happen! Reminder that we’re starting at 6:45!

Fri. May 31 @ 6:24 p.m.

Simone did a nearly flawless Yurchenko double pike in warmups. Just a small step.

Fri. May 31 @ 6:02 p.m.

Excellent Cheng from Skye Blakely, just a step back and a round of applause from those nearby. Better than podium training I think.

Fri. May 31 @ 6:01 p.m.

Suni Lee bars warmup: Van Leeuwen. Blind change to straddle Jaeger to Pak to Maloney to Gienger. Toe 1/1 to full-twisting double back, just a tiny step.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:58 p.m.

Tiana Sumanasekera is a dark horse to watch here and at trials, assuming she makes it (she should). Excellent hit rate. Beautiful gymnastics across the board, including on her much-improved bars. Just did a stick-straight full-twisting double layout.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:56 p.m.

Nearly stuck triple-double from Simone. Clockwork for her.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:56 p.m.

Beautiful double-twisting Yurchenko from Skye Blakely. Assuming we’ll see the Cheng warmed up next as she should be doing both.

Blakely having two competitive vaults increases her stock for the Olympic Team, as she has valuable scores for the team and is competitive individually on vault, bars, and beam.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:44 p.m.

Suni throws a solid double-twisting Yurchenko. Maybe just slightly under-rotated, takes a step back. Power no issue. This is the event her focus is on tonight, upgrading from a full, as she returns to the all-around for the first time since early 2023.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:41 p.m.

Trinity Thomas looking excellent on bars. One of the best double layouts, nearly always stuck. She’s also now taken off the left ankle wrap after vault.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:39 p.m.

A look at Suni and Jade’s leos for tonight! Side note: the color of this meet, at least tonight, is purple! So. Many. Purple. Leos.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:37 p.m.

Simone ended her bars warmup with an excellent double-double.

Fri. May 31 @ 5:29 p.m.

We’re back and watching warmups. Trinity Thomas working the double-twisting Yurchenko. Over-rotated the one we saw but looked purposeful to avoid stinging her ankles, one of which (the left) she has wrapped.

Fri. May 31 @ 4:05 p.m.

Fri. May 31 @ 3:36 p.m.

We’ll be back around 6 p.m. CT with coverage of session 2 of senior women’s competition.

Fri. May 31 @ 3:34 p.m.

Amelia Disidore (GAGE) UB: Toe 1/2 to straddle Jaeger. Pak salto. Van Leeuwen. Toe 1/1 and she’s way over on that. Watered down layout. Her only event today – assume she’s dealing with an injury. 12.050.

Fri. May 31 @ 3:21 p.m.

Charleigh Bullock (Capital) BB: Looking for a redeeming routine here after that rough bars set. 1.5 wolf turn. BHS LOSO, bends in half and then comes off. 2.5 twist, and she falls. Didn’t look like she was hurt but looked like a stinger of a landing. 10.550.

Fri. May 31 @ 3:17 p.m.

Claire Pease (WOGA) FX: Full-twisting double back, single foot OOB. 1.5 to front full. Double pike, a bit deep in the knees but stuck. Wonky wolf turn, but gets two rotations around. 2.5 twist, hop back. 12.850.

Fri. May 31 @ 3:13 p.m.

As expected, Claire Pease leads the juniors with one rotation to go on Day 1. Nicole Desmond leads this first group of seniors.

Fri. May 31 @ 2:59 p.m.

Charleigh Bullock (Capital) UB: Inbar to inbar 1/1, didn’t hit that at handstand Maloney, loses her swing but takes a moment to get it back. Pak salto. Toe shoot. Inbar half to straddle Jaeger. Stalder 1/2 and she’s over but stays on the bar. She is FIGHTING. Double back, just a step back. 10.650.

She’s emotional, but the other gymnasts in her rotating group are comforting her.

Fri. May 31 @ 2:45 p.m.

CaMarah Williams is chalking up to compete bars after that scary fall on vault:

Clear hip. Toe-on, and she has to re-kip. Half turn and she loses that swing as well, then she comes off. Toe 1/1 to straddle Jaeger to Pak. Form issues and she comes off again. From the naked eye, she seems okay physically, it just seems mental. Toe 1/1 to full-twisting double back, low chest, bit wonky, but she lands it. 8.100.

Falls were clean. Not rough.

Fri. May 31 @ 2:35 p.m.

Rotation 3 touch warmup happening now!

Fri. May 31 @ 2:33 p.m.

Shilese Jones has withdrawn from U.S. Championships in order to prioritize recovery and resting a nagging shoulder injury that flared up after the Classic.

Full statement from Jones: “Unfortunately, I won’t be participating in the Xfinity Championships this year. With Paris as my ultimate focus, it’s best for me to prioritize recovery and resting my shoulder this weekend. Both the medical team and I are confident this is the right decision to ensure I’m at full strength for Trials. I’m excited to support my fellow athletes and teammates this weekend.  I am submitting a petition to USAG for Olympi Trials and hope to have the opportunity to compete in Minneapolis!”
