Not much controversy on session 2.

In 2009, there were 1,684 Level 10 gymnasts and just 79 elites.
And in 2017, the number of registered Level 10s in the U.S. is 3,005, nearly double what it was eight years ago. Simply put, there are now a lot of high-level gymnasts in the United States, more than enough to fill out the rosters of several NCAA programs, not just the top ones. …
The NCAA Gymnastics Championship Won’t Belong To The Olympians

Despite the insanely silly NCAA judging, I’m happy MyKayla was rewarded for double double mount, full twisting double back dismount and DTY.
