The Russian juniors were dominant in general at this competition, taking the first four all-around spots as well as sixth place. However, one particular training group stood out from the rest. …

If not, I don’t see how the Russian Juniors, when Senior, will be able to compete against the USA in future. Their start scores will be too low.
