2026 US Selection Camp Live Blog

Day 2 of selection camp (which may or may not influence the decision-making process ) will see everyone compete beam, 8 people compete bars, 3 people compete vault, and 1 Dulcy Caylor compete floor.

The stream is set for USAG’s YouTube from the start today, so fingers crossed it will function like something in the vicinity of a real sport.

We have the legs rotation up first. Esponda, Carey, Molomo on vault and Caylor on floor.

Caylor – FX – a little lean out of memmel turn – DLO, gets it around, chest down with a hop – back full through to double tuck to front tuck, lower but just gets it, bound forward – wolf double, some arm control but definitely around – double L turn, heel drop – double pike, solid position, hop back tour jete 1/2 to switch 1/2, some back leg.

Esponda – VT 1 – solid DTY, good chest up, hop back, some legs

Esponda – VT 2 – hits Lopez, some piked hips, chest slightly low, hop solid

Carey – VT 1 – Cheng is landed, better chest up landing position than yesterday, quite a large bounce back, some knee crossing.

Carey – VT 2 – Strong DTY, good height, small hop back, some leg form. Both vaults better than yesterday.

Molomo – VT 1 – does a handspring front tuck 1/2, chest super down and lunge forward

Molomo – VT 2 – high Y1.5, large lunge forward

Second rotation will have the full complement of gymnasts on bars and beam.

Rotation 2

Rose – UB – weiler to weiler 1/2, gets it together, connects to maloney to clear hip full to pak – van leeuwen, solid – tkatchev – arches hs on high bar and goes over the wrong way, has to add an extra swing – DLO 1/1, hop to the side

Beam warmup still ongoing. Looks like they’re getting a full 20 minute warmup rotation there, not just a one-touch.
