Live from the 2007 National Championships …
Watching warm-ups I sat in the Georgia cheering section. Everyone is still incredibly psyched with the three-peat team win the night before. Excited to host Championships in 2008.
I spoke with the injured Georgia gymnasts — seniors Ashley Kupets and Kelsey Ericksen — as well, disappointed they couldn’t compete. But thrilled the team was still able to win without them.
The biggest knock against NCAA Women’s gymnastics in the past has been the high injury rate. This is well documented.
But here at Championships the girls look very healthy. Very fit.
Perhaps I am not seeing those who were injured and never made it to Salt Lake City.
The laser light show has begun.
It’s SHOW TIME!
