John Orozco out, Danell Leyva in

Blast. 😦

John Orozco injured his left knee on a horizontal bar dismount during the men’s Olympic Team Training Camp.

Orozco has been diagnosed with a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscus, which is the same injury to that knee that happened in October 2012. As a result, Orozco has withdrawn from the team. Danell Leyva will replace him.

John was being counted on for Pommels, P Bars and H Bar. Of the alternates, Danell’s the best fit as replacement.
