West Virgina – Beauty and the Beast
Wrestling is set to be dropped from the 2020 Olympic Games to make way for a new sport. …
There is a slim chance wrestling may win a reprieve when the IOC meets in September to ratify its choice.
Wrestling was introduced as an Olympic sport in 708 BC. It seems crazy to drop it now. Many in the Gymnastics community are supporters. Beauty and the Beast competitions were mentioned on episode 20 of GymCastic.

Yamilet Peña injury update
elcaribe.com (Spanish) is the main source for a report on Couch Gymnast.
I’ve heard more from Andres Llanos Gerardino who’s in Dominican Republic right now leading an FIG Age Group Camp.
As we heard, Yamilet Peña was training Vault on to a Gymnova resi-pit installed for the 2003 Pan-American Games.
Those foam tops “break”.
She landed in a “hole” and injured one ankle.
Needless to say, lack of maintenance of the foam pit is blamed.
Yamilet is listed to compete at the World Cup Paris in March. And still hopes to be ready in time.
Andres fears the injury may force her withdrawal from Paris.
