2:57 pm. Touch warmups are just getting underway now.
2:54 pm. Athletes are being introduced now! After this and the national anthem and touch warmups, we should get started at about 3 pm.
People should really be looking closely at Caroline Moreau on her 3 events. Her AA total is always going to be down because she. can’t vault but being able to go 13.5 bars, 1.8 beam, 13.3 floor internationally is no joke.
