4:30 pm. Charleigh Bullock FX: Full-in, chest down with a small hop. Whip half to rudi for her second pass, some minor form throughout her body line but gets it around. Stumbled out of the Memmel turn attempt. Nice on the leaps though. Lovely 2.5 and her ending choreo is great. 13.300
4:28 pm. Caroline Moreau VT: We didn’t get to see her first vault, I assume a Yurchenko full though based on the D score. 13.400
That puts her in the lead with a 53.700!
4:26 pm. Amariah Moore FX: Full-in, minor form and a hop back. Double wolf turn. Front tuck through to double tuck with a hop back. Leaps could maybe be a little more precise. Low set into the double pike, ends up a little short with a hop forward. 11.900
Sophia Buechler UB: 12.500
4:24 pm. Addalye VanGrinsven VT: Yurchenko 1.5, got a ton of distance, maybe a little deep on the landing but nothing severe, just a step forward. 13.450
Also competed a Yurchenko full for her second vault, really strong landing, tiny step back.
4:23 pm. Isabella Anzola FX: 2.5 with a small hop to the side, minor form in the air. Double tuck with a hop back. Switch leap to tour jeté half, lovely. Front tuck through to clean double full, a little short on the landing. Switch half to stag leap. Double pike, maybe a little low, hop back. 12.750
4:22 pm. Kylie Smith VT: Yurchenko full, powerful and clean! Hop back. 13.200
4:21 pm. Aulya Daniels UB: Big straddle Jaeger, Pak was clean, toe shoot, toe-on to toe full, a little late but not bad, double layout was clean with a small hop. 12.450
Espy Chang VT: 12.350
4:19 pm. Amia Pugh-Banks FX: Solid full-in to start, could’ve maybe used a little more height. Think she did a front full through to double tuck for the second pass, landing was just a tad short with a hop forward. Leaps with minor form. Double pike with a low set but got it around with a hop back. 13.100
4:18 pm. Lavi Crain UB: Hop change to Endo half to Maloney to stalder to Ricna, nice! Stalder full, looked a little off so didn’t connect to the Pak, van Leeuwen went a little crooked but not bad, double layout, some leg form but a solid landing. 13.750
4:17 pm. Elaina Sliney VT: Yurchenko full was clean in the air but landed really short, kind of an ankle cruncher, big step forward. 12.650
4:16 pm. Anslee McCauley UB: Toe-on to blind change to huge straddle Jaeger, Pak wasn’t super tidy but not bad, toe shoot a tiny bit close, blind full a bit rushed with some form, and a double layout, also some leg and hip form there, looked kinda whippy, but nice hit routine! 12.150
Sydney Williams VT: 11.500
4:14 pm. Trinity Wood FX: Double pike, strong, step back. 1.5 to front layout, some leg form in the former throughout the twists. Switch ring to big switch side. Double wolf turn and switch half went well. Dobule tuck, just slightly short on that landing but nice overall. 12.850
4:13 pm. Kaylee Sath UB: Stalder to stalder half to straddle Jaeger, decent height but maybe a bit close, not the cleanest? Pak, toe full with some form, van Leeuwen also with form issues, high clean double tuck but rotated a bit slowly and ended up a little short with a hop. 12.450
4:12 pm. Addy Fulcher VT: Pretty clean Yurchenko full, no major issues on the landing. 13.300
4:11 pm. Lila Richardson FX: Stream jumped into this a bit late, caught it from the double pike, a bit deep in that landing. Popa wasn’t close to 180. That’s it! 12.500
4:10 pm. Vivi Crain UB: Stalder half to inbar to stalder full, Maloney to stalder to toe-on to Pak, tucked her legs there. Toe shoot, double tuck. Bummer about the Pak, really nice stuff otherwise! 12.000

Double tuck with a really strong landing. I think this routine looks too easy for her but in a good way – she’s really got it perfected! 13.150
3:58 pm. Kylie Smith FX: Full-in, decent landing. Minor form in the air. 1.5 to front full, stuck. Lovely Popa. Double wolf turn. Front tuck through to double tuck, chest down and a hop forward. 13.150
Amariah Moore BB: 11.750
3:54 pm. Isabella Anzola BB: Soared throughout the triple flight series but maybe a bit too aggressive for the landing to be clean. Front aerial maybe slightly slow to the jumps but all clean. Strong side aerial. Switch leap to switch half, could be tighter but not bad. Double pike with a hop. Pretty great! 13.600
Elaina Sliney FX: 12.600

Front aerial with a wobble, split ring jump but the back leg wasn’t quite there, 1.5 dismount with a big hop forward. 11.550
3:47 pm. Sydney Williams FX: Front layout to front double full with a hop forward. Switch ring to tour jeté half. Double tuck, chest down with a tiny bounce in place. Switch half into the corner before her last pass, a 2.5 with a tiny bounce forward. 12.950

Kaylee Sath VT: 13.400
3:42 pm. Anslee McCauley VT: Yurchenko full with a small hop back. 12.850

3:32 pm. Kylie Smith BB: I missed the beginning of this but she hit everything I saw. Started typing at the side aerial, she’s such a joy to watch on every apparatus. High double tuck with a small hop. 12.950
3:30 pm. No floor for Lavi Crain. She is added to the national team no matter what as a member of the Junior Pan Am Games team and was originally only supposed to compete all-around just today, not on Saturday, so hopefully she’s okay and had a change of plans slash is focusing on other events?
3:28 pm. Espy Chang BB: Form on the acro series was a little weak and it looked like she was just moving a bit slowly but she got it around…bhs bhs loso IIRC. Nice on the wolf turn and the side aerial, front aerial, cartwheel to 1.5 dismount with a hop. 12.850
3:25 pm. Elaina Sliney BB: Jumped into this late. Bhs bhs loso, switch to split jump, split jump half not really split at all, side aerial with a break at the hips, front aerial, double full with a hop back. 12.050
Amia Pugh-Banks UB: 12.700
3:24 pm. Isabella Anzola UB: Stalder full, a bit late, toe-on to Maloney to clear hip with bent arms, caught the Jaeger, bail was a little short with some leg form, she’s muscling most of her handstands and swings but making it through, toe shoot, and a double layout with a hop. 12.650
3:21 pm. Kaylee Sath FX: Full-in, really low, chest down and step forward. 1.5 to front full, solid enough. Double L turn to pirouette and leaps go mostly well. Double full with a small hop back. Lovely ending pose. 12.750
Addy Fulcher BB: 11.550
Trinity Wood UB: 11.500
3:17 pm. Vivi Crain FX: High set into her double tuck, but steps back, I think OOB. Switch ring to tour jeté half, landing not super precise. 2.5 to front pike to stag, almost looked like it could’ve lost control but she did well to reel it in. Clean double full, small hop. 12.650
3:16 pm. Lila Richardson UB: I missed the start of her first release but it looked really big, then she went for a Ray but couldn’t hang on. Low Pak, legs apart. Toe shoot was a big dead hangy. Blind full and a double layout, some leg form but gets the landing. 11.000
Caroline Moreau BB: 13.300
3:13 pm. Sophia Buechler FX: 2.5 to front tuck with a good landing. Good 1.5 to front full. Switch ring to switch half. Double tuck, a bit low in her set and then on the landing, pulls her chest back and has to take a big step back OOB. 12.150
Addalye VanGrinsven BB: 12.600
Amariah Moore UB: 11.650
3:11 pm. Charleigh Bullock UB: Inbar full to Komova II to Pak to stalder to van Leeuwen, excellent! Inbar half to straddle Jaeger, extension for days! Full-in with a step back. 14.000
3:09 pm. Aulya Daniels FX: Front tuck through to double pike, large hop back. Switch ring to switch half I think after that. 1.5 through to double full, strong landing there. High double tuck, baby hop, looked really nice overall. Good work! 12.950
3:04 pm. Rotation 1 Standings
1. Amia Pugh-Banks 14.100
2. Caroline Moreau 13.450
3. Trinity Wood 13.100
4. Isabella Anzola 12.900
– Charleigh Bullock 12.900
6. Lila Richardson 12.850
– Addy Fulcher 12.850
8. Sydney Williams 12.750
– Lavi Crain 12.750
3:01 pm. Anslee McCauley BB: Bhs loso with a sizable wobble, leg comes up but she stabilizes quickly. Side aerial, really big cross straddle jump, clean full turn, switch to split jump, 180 could be a little cleaner, back tuck, front aerial, double tuck looked a little low and landed with her chest down, but nice hit. 11.500
2:59 pm. Espy Chang UB: Hop change before the straddle Jaeger, good. Clear hip with some bent elbows before a pirouette to Pak, hops around for a toe-on to toe shoot, double tuck with her chest down, pulls back and sits it. 11.300
2:58 pm. Kaylee Sath BB: The stream jumped into this late but what I saw was good, and she dismounted with a stuck double full. 12.200
2:57 pm. Elaina Sliney UB: Lovely handstand before the toe-on to blind change to straddle Jaeger, she’s so floaty! Clear hip to Pak, some leg and foot form, van Leeuwen looked a little late coming off the low bar with wild leg form and she doesn’t get the rotation, kind of a hard fall. Shame, this looked so pretty. Blind full and double layout with a step. 11.400
2:53 pm. Vivi Crain BB: Lovely wolf turn and front aerial to split jump to straddle jump. Bhs loso with a slight check but swings her arms around to make it look choreographed. Decent on the leap series. Side somi with a slight check. Same on the switch side. Good double full dismount. 12.650
2:52 pm. Amia Pugh-Banks VT: Didn’t see her first, but the second was a big Yurchenko full. Based on the score, her first vault was a double full, 14.100 including a two-tenth bonus.
2:50 pm. Addy Fulcher UB: I caught this from the stalder full to Maloney (?) to Tkachev, a bit low on the latter but good series overall. Pak with minor form, to clear hip (?) to van Leeuwen I think? Hard to see root skill details because the coach was blocking her for most of this so I guessed on a couple of those. But you get the idea. Full-in dismount was really low with a lunge forward. 12.850
2:49 pm. Trinity Wood VT: Yurchenko full, good enough, big-ish hop back. 13.100
2:47 pm. Aulya Daniels BB: Got a little wild in the wolf turn and had to stand up out of it. Hit the front aerial to jumps well enough and then the bhs loso with a little check. Hit the rest, including a double full dismount. 12.400
Lavi Crain BB: 12.750
2:45 pm. Well I missed Lavi Crain on beam because it said the comp was starting at 2:45 pm so I turned on the comp at 2:45 pm and she was just finishing her routine lmao. ANYWAY WELCOME TO THE LIVE BLOG.
