Gymmin' Miel!

The team from WOGA was triumphant in the team standings in the International Elite session. However it was Denton Gymnastics Academy's Abigail Milliet and Meredith Sylvia of Parkettes who took out the Senior and Junior All Around titles respectively. Milliet top scored with a 15.000 on Vault and also recorded the highest score for the Seniors on the Floor Exercise on her way to victory. Ukraine's Mariya Livchikova was the only other Senior to compete on all four events. WOGA's Katelyn Ohashi scored highs of 15.000 on the Uneven Bars and a massive 15.800 on the Balance Beam to top these events! Laurie Hernandez of MG Elite and Rhyannon Jones of Great Britain finished second and third respectively in Junior All Around standings. Sylvia topped the Uneven Bars for the Juniors whilst Polina Schennikova (TIGAR CO) and Ellie Downie (Great Britain) tied for the top score on the Vault. WOGA's Irina Alexeeva was the top scorer on the Balance Beam and Floor Exercise.
