Stand out routines inlcuded the entire High Bar rotation for Oklahoma, Presten Ellsworth's double front vault, and the floor routine by Danny Steiner of Ohio!
Several former Olympians were in attendence which was a motivation for many young gymansts in the crowd! Justin Spring (Illinois), Guard Young (Oklahoma) and Rustam Sharipov (Ohio) were coaching and Jon Horton came to support his Sooners! Be sure to check back for interviews with these Olympians!
