    Next is at a neutral site in Fort Worth on 2 weeks. Two semifinal rounds of four teams each. Final round is top two from each semifinal. Called “four on the floor.”

    Boosters need to get Trinity an oxygen tank to sleep in like Terrel Owens. Or go natural and drink pedialyte. Don’t be cheap boosters. I really hope for her she’s healthy for the finals. She deserves it!

    so, is the tik-tock queen from LSU going to perform, or just look pretty?

    I want to say TT shutting herself down in that floor routine yesterday shows next level intelligence. Her health and wellbeing is first and foremost but she trusted her teammates to do what was needed to be done to advance. Buy her time to get right and perform again. If the team didn’t step up that floor routine could have been the last we ever saw of TT. Not that that would be a blemish on her historic career in any way but I believe we’re going to see TT again and it’s going to be amazing. Blessing in disguise perhaps.

    Obviously Trinity is the key, nobody denies that but let’s boost up the rest of the team as well. The team got to the next stage without TT. Celebrate that, huge confidence boost for the team.

    I guarantee TT is picking her teammates up, not putting them down. Class and grace.

    Not only was advancing not easy, but we were also fortunate to advance finishing second. Sloane continues to have a nerves problem just like she had in the 22 national finals. It is inexplicable how Rachel keeps making the same mistake on her final floor pass.

    Michigan State was my dark horse pick to advance to the finals since the start of the season, UCLA too.

    Cal put on a clinic of how to advance with class and grace. Congrats to the Bears on a well-earned victory. They reminded me of OU-Lite in the regional final.

    Rowland on Thomas: "I think it's too early to tell. Her mindset is strong, she's all in. If anyone can do it, we have full faith and confidence that she can do it."

    So clearly not the cramp some people speculated. Ankle or knee seem more likely I guess

    Strange, there were posts here saying she was walking fine w/o a limp or any other problem?

    if it's a tweaked knee you can walk normally, same with a wrapped ankle. Doing high level gymnastics is the issue
