Michigan Coach Kurt Golder:
“He is the spirit of the team,” Golder said. “He will get you going. He is a fun guy, he’s a funny guy. He just has a spirit that is unparalleled.”
One of the most watchable guys out there. NCAA is going to miss Stacey. He’d like to do stand-up Comedy.

If you want to study good, clean Horizontal Bar in 2015, there are not all that many terrific role models. Certainly Nile is one of the best.
And he’s training the big releases in series.
Friday April 10th 8pm ET. Team and AA Champions 2015 will be decided.
Oklahoma looks unbeatable. I was not super impressed with P Bars and H Bar in prelims, however. They could be BETTER in Finals.
I’ll be cheering for underdogs Iowa and Cal. It’s not easy to qualify to the final 6. Trust me. Difficulty is huge. Routines are long. Many of the guys are just trying to keep each line-up together at the end of a tough season.

She’s OK on Bars, as well. 🙂
The four athletes who will represent Team Canada in trampoline at the Toronto 2015 Pan American Games were named by Gymnastics Canada on Thursday, three of whom have won five Olympic medals.
London 2012 gold medallist in women’s trampoline, Rosie MacLennan, is on the team, as is Karen Cockburn, a three-time Olympic medallist. Cockburn made it to the Olympic podium at Sydney 2000 with a bronze and then won back-to-back silver medals at Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008.
On the men’s side, Beijing 2008 silver medal-winner Jason Burnett, along with Keegan Soehn carry Canada’s trampoline hopes in Toronto. Soehn is the defending Pan Am men’s trampoline champion when from the games in Guadalajara, Mexico in 2011.
An intimidating line-up. Keegan Soehn trains in Alberta. The other 3 legends train in the host city. Trampoline is kind of a big deal in Toronto. 🙂
A little high. Compared to me. 🙂

Though the numbers don’t look it, this was a thriller. I happened to be sitting in the Iowa cheering section and we weren’t convinced that the Hawkeyes were going to the Super 6 until the last few routines on P Bars.
ANYTHING can happen in a 5-up, 5-count competition. (Not anything. Oklahoma was going to win this session without question. We knew that after their 1st apparatus- Floor.)
