Gold Medal in Pittsburgh!


This meet was held at the Sheraton at Station Square in Pittsburgh, PA.  The meet was held in honor of a gymnastics coach who was tragically killed in a car accident.  The meet included a beautiful video memorial and a dance performance in her memory.  When Rylie saw this touching memorial, she turned to us and said, "I'm blessed."  Rylie had a season high score at this meet of 36.275 earning her first place all around.  She also took first in beam and vault, and second in bars and floor.  Enjoy the video of some of her best moments from this meet.  Rylie also has her own You Tube Channel that showcases some of her gymnastics moments.
