Beth competed beam and bars--level 8--on Saturday and did okay--not fantastic, but not horrible either!
She was bummed that she was last session on Saturday--she wanted to be in the morning, so she could compete, then not worry about it. And she wanted to start on bars, so she could do both her events and be done--but she started on beam, so did first and last events!
She looked okay on beam--a tad wobbly at times, but not too bad. Routine is watered down because of her foot, but no falls or anything--got an 8.975 and good for 14th place.
Bars she barely got to warm up. Her coach wanted to warm up half their flight, then compete (I think he wanted to leave!), so she only got to do one top change in warm-up and it didn't look great in her routine. But again--not terrible. She was upset though--she got an 8.45 and didn't place (looked it up and she was 17th).
I'm uploading the video to youtube right now. Link in my sig.
Hoping she'll do all-around at the next meet in two weeks--she's got to start floor and vault this week for that to happen though. She might skip gymnastics today as she's sick--hard to tumble when you're starting off dizzy!
