bit expect floor gotten happy last needed next problem routine vengeance week
If she had done the floor routine she'd done last week she would have gotten a 9.8, but we needed her to do this routine when we get to postseason. She had a little bit of a problem (at the end), and she is so competitive, she is not happy with herself. That's kind of good. I expect her to come back with a vengeance next week.

They're no different than any other athlete. There was no momentum at that point. The team could have deflated itself, and it didn't. When she hit that vault, that was huge.

I really didn't know what to expect, but I'm pleasantly surprised. The freshmen are really starting to gain confidence, and the upperclassmen are showing them the way.

I basically have designed the team to be ready for the postseason. We could be going a little easier, but we're doing some very difficult gymnastics.

I feel better about the high 195. That's a really good score around the country.
