I had hoped to have more shots from the Northeast Invitational to post here, but DGS9.9 hasn't been too fast in posting any that their photographer shot. So, these are the highlights I got on
my camera.
Shopping for leos before the meet. Pinning on numbers, a team activity.
Lined up at march-in. Stetching prior to timed warm ups.
Jess steppin' to the gold on Floor. Kayla's tsuk takes the gold again.
LaNaya's gold-medal Beam mount. Melinda's straddle-back to the Bronze.
Shilanna on high bar to gold medal. Allison's amazingly high split-jump to the Silver on Beam.
Courtney on her way to the Bronze medal for Beam. Alyssa in mid-full, to the Bronze on Floor.
The Level 8 Team before competition, and after, on the winner's platform with their 2nd place team trophy.
First Shift -- Emma L, Sarah and Ellie take the early shift at Shaws. Hope, Sydney and LaNaya greet the early shoppers at Walmart.
Second Shift -- Amanda and Maddy handle Shaws while Emma, Hanna, Sydney and LaNaya make sure the Walmart shoppers know they're gymnasts.
Third Shift -- Nicole and Emily D at Shaws. Hanna, Emma and Sydney do handstands at Walmart, while LaNaya looks on.
LaNaya, Hope and Sydney try to make the letters O T and W.
A big treat for the Walmart crew was a surprise visit from Hillary (part of OTW's 2007 Level 7 State Champions team). She got lots of hugs. Later, a photographer from the Carriage Towne News saw the girls doing their handstands, etc. and stopped to take a picture. Maybe there'll be a little story on the girls in an upcoming paper?
