Live (Hopefully) Updates of Mizzou Gymnasts at NCAA's

Feel free to try to follow the action via this link, but so far the updates to the site are few and far between.  Shire is going to rotate with the Georgia team, while Perry will travel with the Florida squad.  The top 4 finishers on each event will earn All-American First Team status and make the finals later tonight.  If a gymnast finishes 5th-8th achieve All-American Second Team status.

Perry starts out with a very solid 9.850 on the floor

That was just .025 behind the top performer from Florida, so while that will not likely hold up, it is still a very solid start for the senior.

2nd rotation finds Georgia (Shire) starting on the floor

and Florida (Perry) moving over the floor.

Perry’s score of 9.850 was tied for the best of the “wild card” performers out there, as no one in the first rotation on ANY event scored better than 9.875.

Perry scores her 2nd 9.850 of the afternoon

I have to say these are some VERY good scores for the first two rotations for her. The leader right now on vault is at 9.900, with a couple at 9.875 as well.

No score posted yet for Shire on the floor.

Shire scores a 9.700 on the floor

Not a great start to her afternoon, though this is her 3rd strongest event (7th nationally on beam and 11th on vault)

Perry’s strongest is floor where she averages 9.875 (so I guess she was just under her average) and her next two are vault and beam.

Looks like Florida (Perry) gets a break

while Georgia (Shire) will rotate to the vault, one of her strongest events. Hopefully she can bounce back from the 9.7 and put up a big number.

Shire with a 9.900 on the vault!!

She is tied for 2nd place right now with two other gymnasts (one who I believe is a gold medal winner from Georgia). GREAT comeback from the shaky start.

It is the halway point....

not sure what waits Shire and Perry in their last half. I imagine Perry will be in action, and I am guessing Shire will not be…if I had to hazard a guess

Florida (Perry) head to the Uneven Bars

while Georgia (Shire) rides the sidelines. This means Florida (Perry) will next go to the beam for their final event while Georgia (Shire) will go to the bars and finish on beam in the 6th and final rotation.

Perry with another solid score of 9.800

Puts her in a big tie for 11th on the event, and has her All-Around score looking pretty solid. Another 9.8 on the beam would have her finishing at 39.300, which would be extremely respectable.

Damn tracker....

Georgia (Shire) is in fact on the bars and Florida (Perry) is on the beam. This is Perry’s final event of her Mizzou career…it would be great to stick it on her way out.

Adrienne Perry finishes with a 9.850 on the beam

Good enough for a current tie for 5th and finishes currently tied for 2nd All-Around with a score of 39.350. A WONDERFUL effort from Perry.

Shire scores a 9.825 on the bars and will move the beam (her best event) for her last rotation. With a 9.800 (like we used for Perry), she would finish with an All-Around score of 39.275. A 9.900 or better here and she will sneak in front of Perry, as well as put herself in position for AA status.

The winner of the All-Around is Courtney Cupets of Georgia

who I believe was on the last USA Team in the Olympics….her scores

9.9 on the vault
9.95 on the floor
9.95 on the bars
10.0 on the beam

39.800 final score.

SICK!

Still waiting on Shire to finish the beam and then I will review final totals

Shire is a little off on the beam and finishes with a 9.775

That puts her tied for 24th on the beam.

Final Scores to come

Final Scores:

All Around
Adrienne Perry – 39.350 (5th)
Sarah Shire – 39.200 (tied for 10th)

Vault
Sarah Shire – 9.900 (tied for 4th)
Adrienne Perry – 9.850 (tied for 11th)

Uneven Bars
Sarah Shire – 9.825 (tied for 13th)
Adrienne Perry – 9.800 (tied for 19th)

Beam
Adrienne Perry – 9.850 (tied for 11th)
Sarah Shire – 9.775 (tied for 24th)

Floor Exercise
Adrienne Perry – 9.850 (tied for 6th)
Sarah Shire – 9.700 (37th)

I dont know how the tie-breakers work, and I do not know how the All-American status for All-Around works, but it looks like Adrienne Perry has achieved All-American status in Floor Exercise and MAYBE in the All-Around. It also looks like Sarah Shire has achieved All-American status on the vault and may be participating tonight in the finals.
