Despite a few freak falls and injuries, the reigning world-champion women's team still managed to pull off a #2 finish heading into Tuesday night's final. The girls remain optimistic:
“We’ve overcome so many obstacles, but we came out here today and showed the world and every team out here that we can come back strong,” Johnson said. “We made a few mistakes, but it is prelims and it’s the perfect time to make them. We’re going to come back even stronger in the team finals. We’re ready to fight for it.” Shawn Johnson, the current world champion, was the 1st place AA finisher.
Catch the women's team finals Tuesday on NBC at 10:15PM. Click here for a complete gymnastics TV schedule. The US men posted a 4th place prelim finish - finals will be tonight at 10PM.
DON'T FORGET! EXXCEL'S OLYMPICS SLEEPOVER IS THIS FRIDAY. THERE ARE STILL SPACES LEFT FOR WHAT SHOULD BE AN AWESOME NIGHT OF UNINTERRUPTED GYMNASTICS FUN. HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
