This team improved SOO MUCH I remember them losing against auburn at the start of the season and now they hold the second highest team score this season
Kudos for not mentioning her mother, and focusing solely on her, and her work and accomplishments. Oftentimes commentators, when reviewing children of former (insert career here), compare them to their parents. That's always annoyed the crap out of me. Glad to see that the gymnastics world has changed a bit since her mother's days!
I think people are confused how Trinity Thomas hasn't gotten a 10 because she has one of the best forms in NCAA right now, also with the fact that she usually has controlled landings.
Edward Miller it is such a micro slide of the foot that to the naked eye in regular speed it isn’t noticeable. That’s the only reason the judges wouldn’t have caught it
@@elenajoseph6630 I agree it was fast but her split leap full wasn't 180 either. This was a 9.9 or 9.925 at nationals Finnegan is the only gymnast on that team capable of a 10 on floor cause her leaps are perfection.
Judges do not have the added benefit of replay, slow motion and rewatching. To the naked eye, and NCAA standards, this is a "10"! That double lay was stuck, with the step back allowed. That leap? We can't see from this angle, but it looks close enough. I'm dreading the day NCAA picks up after elite and there are no more perfect routines. Elite had to do it because of the range in difficulty and every micro movement being scrutinized is as it should be, for elite level, but not NCAA?? This was a 10. She doesnt have the hyper flexibility of Finnegan of course, but still an "NCAA 10"! 🤗
She stuck all her landings it was clean but honestly there was no showmanship meaning beyond the precision it was boring to watch..the facial expression, the music, the dance, the pace of it was overall slow and not as energetic.
