Years and years of hard work, dedication, high highs and low lows and she saw her ultimate dream come true today. She signed her NLI and is officially a Sooner (still waiting on the official college acceptance). I feel like I've been part of CB forever so I just had to share this momentous...
My girl just had the meet of her life. Last week she scored her first ever perfect 10 on bars. I really didn't think anything could top that. Well, tonight she scored TWO perfect 10s (vault and bars) and scored the highest AA score in the country with a 39.775.
Cannot wait for her college...
Wow, realized I hadn't been on here in a few months, it was fun to catch up on all of the posts that I'd missed! Miss Lily is getting ready to leave for Indianapolis in a few days to attend national team camp and then off to Oklahoma for OU camp, finishing out the month at Minnesota camp. So...
There have been 2 national qualifiers with 2 more to go. Scores have been rough. Here is a list of the athletes currently qualified.

Lily competed in her first elite national qualifier where she achieved her score needed to officially qualify as a junior elite gymnast! Here is a link to her YouTube channel with her videos from that meet. Thank you to all who have followed her journey so far!
Lily competed in her first elite national qualifier today and she achieved her goal. With a score of 52.7 she is officially a junior elite gymnast! Never been more proud of her. Can't wait to see what 2020 and beyond has in store for her!
Lily closed out her season by competing in the HOPES championship meet on Friday. She took home the gold on floor, bronze on vault and the silver in the all around with a 51.2. This year has been full of ups and downs. She started the season with the goal of qualifying junior elite but after not...
Just want to wish good luck to all the gymnasts competing this week in salt lake city!! All sessions will be live streamed on YouTube. HOPES sessions are on Friday, juniors and seniors on Saturday.
Heard from a reputable source that next years American classic will ne held much earlier in the year, either end of February or early March. Which means new junior elites that are also doing JO won't be able to compete at nationals if they compete at the classic meet.
Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted here. Just wanted to let everyone know that Lily qualified for nationals again, we are so proud!! She is still in the Junior A age group, she competed in region 4 regionals and came away with the beam, floor and all around titles and placed 2nd on vault...
Getting really frustrated....they announced the location of championships months ago but nothing about where either classic is going to be held. The first one is in 3 months. Seems far away until you have to start planning flights, etc....impatient mom here.
We are heading out early Thursday for our first ever visit to Texas for the Biles meet. Lily will be competing in the Friday elite qualifier. She and her coaches had a long talk after her last qualifier and they have decided to change her goal to HOPES instead of junior elite. She seems like a...
Definitely did not go the way we had hoped. Started on bars and I knew as soon as she started that this wasn't going to be a great meet. She ended with an AA of 46.050, she needed a 50.5 to advance. Luckily she will be able to try again in two weeks at the Biles meet in Texas.
