Shawn Takes Top Honors in Kansas City
7/31/2006

This weekend Shawn competed in the US Classic, claiming the all around title over Indiana's Samantha Peszek. Shawn started off on bars where she was clean for a 15.25 (Shawn's highest bar score to date). Next she went to beam where she competed her new FULL IN DISMOUNT scoring a 15.25. Following beam Shawn went to floor where she threw yet another new skill, a DOUBLE TWISTING DOUBLE BACK as her first pass. Though she stepped out of bounds on the skill Shawn still earned a 14.85. She needed a 15.15 going in to her last event, vault, to edge Peszek. Shawn delivered a solid vault for a 15.3 and the win with a 60.65! She also took home medals in all 4 events (2nd on vault and floor and 3rd on beam and bars) Congratulations on a great competition, Shawn!
