Shannon Says: |
"Competing first on beam is nerve-wracking
because you feel a lot of responsibility for starting
the team off on the right foot." |
9:35pm |
Shannon Says: |
"Lindsey is as solid as a rock on beam. And,
she looks like me! U-M has some nice beam this year!
This freshman is really adjusting well to the college
atmosphere. She looks really calm and prepared --
like she's been at U-M forever." |
9:42pm |
Shannon Says: |
"It's really important to pull it back together
after you fall on beam, so that 5 tenths is all
they can take. Plus, you never know what will happen
later on in the rotation. Your score may still count,
so you can't give up." |
