FROM COACH KERRIE TURNER
"Vault was a really solid start. I'm proud to see the team continue to build on that. Bars was a huge improvement. We need to clean up and get some landings there, but what a great turnaround there. We let ourselves down on our beam, because we are an awesome beam team. We just haven't put it all out there. There's a lot to build on, we just haven't really hit our stride yet."
