Senior Men's Field for VISA Champs
7:03 PM
Can Danell Leyva win a second consecutive VISA AA Title?
The Senior Men's Artistic Gymnastics field for the 2012 VISA Championships has been announced. The competition will be taking place at the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri from the 7th to the 10th of June. The performances we witness at these Championships will determine the gymnasts who will advance to the Olympic Trials which will take place in San Jose, California. Who will win? And who will make the Olympic Trials? I think it is going to be close and usually I make a predict, but this year I think I will leave my thoughts to myself, but undoubtedly I am sure that Danell Leyva and John Orozco will definitely be in the mix. Also do not count out Jonathan Horton, David Sender and Christopher Brooks. What do you think? The competition also marks the VISA Champs debut of former Bulgarian representative Eddie Penev.
