Georgia Dabritz wins the AAI
Congratulations.
“I really look back on my career and think that the word perseverance is the best word to describe it,” said Dabritz. “I think that’s true for Corrie too because she came back so strong from the injury.”

Illinois NCAA Men’s bracket proposal
Assistant Illinois Coach Daniel Ribeiro and Head Coach Justin Spring have spent a lot of time dreaming up alternative competition formats that would make the sport more entertaining and understandable to the average fan.
Daniel Ribeiro posted one option on the NCAA MEN’S GYMNASTICS ALUMNI Facebook page – a 16 team bracket culminating in a Final 4 Championships. Here’s an example of how it could work.
If you have a comment, leave it on that Facebook page.
I was at Championships and it was very difficult to follow 6 teams LIVE simultaneously and know who was where at any time during the meet. What I want is a separate results page with projected final team rankings based on a number of variables.

2015 is an Individual Championships. No Team competition.
The preliminary competition was all about deciding who qualifies to FINALS. Here are the not-all-that-friendly official results.
Not a good meet for Romania.

About the NAIGC:
The National Association of Intercollegiate Gymnastics Clubs (NAIGC) is dedicated to the promotion and support of collegiate and adult club gymnastics “for the love of the sport.” The NAIGC hosted its first annual national championships in 1989. In 2006, the NAIGC incorporated as a non-profit and elected its first Board of Directors. The NAIGC was recognized as a tax-exempt public charity in 2008.
Today, an elected Board of Directors, alongside its advisors, runs the NAIGC. Most of these dedicated volunteers are current and former college club gymnasts. The NAIGC hosts this annual national championship meet, as well as other gymnastics events throughout the year and supports its member clubs with a variety of technological and administrative services.
Club membership in the NAIGC is open to any collegiate and/or adult gymnastics club in the United States. Individual membership is open to anyone with an interest in club gymnastics. For more information, visit naigc.net.

WHO will win NCAA Chamionships?
Most feel #1 Oklahoma is the team to beat.
The #1 ranked team wins Nationals 61% of the time.
No team ranked lower than #5 has ever won (in the last 17 years).

To get to the Super 6 Team Final, you must finish top 3 in one of the two Semifinals. A lot of pressure.
Balance Beam Situation – National Championship Preview Part 1: The Afternoon Semifinal of Horrors
Thursday, April 16: Practice Day. Three sessions: 10:30 a.m., 1:01 p.m. and 3:32 p.m. In the past it’s been open to the general public. I assume the same applies this year.
