One of the other things about being an election year- it’s also a Summer Olympics year. And any time I get to brag on Gymnastics, and especially Men’s Gymnastics at any point I’m going to take it. US Championships finish up today where Simone Biles will extend her greatness. Brody Malone came back from a major knee injury a year ago to win the Men’s Championship last night.
Olympic Trials are at the end of the month, to select the team to go to Paris. US Men’s gymnastics is probably at its best place-for the present and the future- than it has ever been.
My son competed in this event last year in the Junior division. He moved up to the US Men’s Senior Elite division, and the qualification is much tougher. He is in the same competitive division everyone who could qualify for the Olympics. Things are going very well for him though:
