Competition season has started again for Calvin. This year he is in Level 7. My understanding is that this is a particularly difficult level, and he has really been struggling lately. His first meet was Sunday. He actually did much better than I was expecting, since earlier in the week the team had run through their events with a judge and all did pretty terrible.
The boys started on rings, and Calvin scored a 13.2:
Next was vault, where he got a score of 14.2:
On the parallel bars he got an 11.1:
He did not compete on high bar (he needs to be able to do giants better)
Next was floor, where he got a score of 12.5 (he shouldn't be landing on his butt for a front tuck, he almost never does that!). I especially like his first tumbling pass, with that beautiful layout:
The boys ended on pommel horse, which was pretty rough for him. Calvin got a score of 7.5:
His all-around score was 58.5. Not enough to qualify for state yet, but now he knows what he really needs to work on, and has a goal to reach for. Next meet is Saturday night!
by the way, the team got new uniforms this year, they look pretty nice, no?
Way to go Calvin!
