But it won't happen. Uzelac, who may be the best American gymnast of any age right now, doesn't even have a 10.0 start value for any event. She has 9.9 for balance beam, 9.8 for floor exercise, 9.7 and 9.6 for her two vaults and 9.5 on uneven bars. She would have to be flawless to get even those scores. Uzelac will lead the American women's team against Romania and China Saturday in Hawaii in the Pontiac American Team Cup.
Olympians are now off to college.
Kelli Hill, Mary Lee Tracy and Beth and Steve Rybacki were on center stage with Donna and Bill Strauss during the last quadrennium leading up to the Sydney Games. The women's meet will be televised by NBC on April 14. Do yourself a favor. Watch for the grace, the poise and the skill. Ignore the scores.
