Leanne came on my radar when she won the American Cup. American Girl just happened to have released an Asian gymnastics doll that year. She's also from the metro area of the Chiefs. I hope her and Trinity do well this elite competition year!

Leanne is always signing autographs for the kids. She's exactly the type of gymnast that should be representing the US.

Wonder if they ever landed on their head. This sport looks like it can go bad real quick

Happens all the time. They also tear more Achilles than any other college sport.

@@Vintagefeen Not televised? There have been MANY televised incidents of gymnasts landing on their heads over the decades. Two moments that come to mind are Amy Chow and Dominique Moceanu hitting their heads on the beam in the 90s. Those didn't result in paralysis or death, but they were scary and did cause some gnarly injuries.

The fact that it can go bad real quick is 100% true. A college gymnast died in training sometime in the last few years. Paralysis is not unheard of. Concussions are common and used to be dismissed by coaches. This is exactly why it was so important for Simone Biles to pull out of most of her events in Tokyo when it was clear she'd lost air awareness (got the "twisties"). If she'd tried to push through it she really could've broken her neck.
