… the 2010 Men’s NCAA Champions, the University of Michigan. The Wolverines are gearing up for the 2012 Big 10 Championships which will be held next weekend at Iowa. Sophomore Sam Mikulak is the reigning Big 10 and National All Around Champion and will work to defend his title. He’s also in the running for the 2012 USA Olympic team.

Thanks once again to Anne and team for all the work spent putting together these Workout Wednesdays, my favourite regular feature.
Sadly I won’t be getting to Men’s NCAA Championships 2012. It’s scheduled the same weekend as the Women’s meet in Georgia.
Penn State has the highest score this season. Unlike WAG, anything can happen in Men’s Collegiate Gymnastics.
The best source for information on the Russian Team is the Russian National Women’s Coach.
When asked about gymnasts not prepared for Russian Championships in Penza he gave straight answers:
Victoria Komova – minor operation to ensure blood flow to her ankles
Tatiana Nabieva – can’t decide whether or not she wants to commit to what’s being asked of her … and has many colds
Yekaterina Kurbatova – no longer in the Olympic selection pool
Anastasia Sidorova – flew over the handlebars of her bike = broken arm.
Anna Dementieva – tonsillitis
Aliya Mustafina – good progress, but only now starting serious Floor / Vault training.
A translation of that interview is available on Couch Gymnast – “Everyone has their own trump card”
Sounds like Nabieva is back training at Round Lake. But I’m sure Alexander is worried about their depth for London.
The Russian Europeans Team will be announced after a competition in Switzerland April 18th.
Fangymnastics – Romanian gymnastics blog:
Usually, we dont post about gymnastics from other countries, but this time I’ll make an exception because the routine I want to speak about really impressed me. In the last few days I have watched 3 uneven bars routines from Aliya Mustafina, the ones she performed at the Russian Nationals. …
Aliya Mustafina’s D score:
Stalder full (D) + toe-on Khorkhina (E) +0.2;
Inbar stalder with half turn (D) + Piked Jaeger salto (D) +0.1;
Inbar stalder with full turn (E) + Pak salto (D) + stalder Khorkhina (E) +0.4;
toe-on with full turn (D) + Mustafina (E) + 0.2;
Final score: 7.0
