College Gymnastics News!

OK so my twitter is all a buzz. Apparently 2009 World All Around Champion, and 2008 Olympic Silver Team Medalist Bridget Sloan will be competing for Florida. I hope this is true, I think this school will be a good fit for her. I am so in love with the Gators this year, and I think that the NCAA Championship is theirs to lose. Although they lost the SECs to Alabama and to Arkansas earlier in the season, I still think they have the best shot at winning if all their athletes are healthy.

I am also hearing that 2008 Olympic Alternate Ivana Hong will be competing for Stanford. Does this mean that both of these athletes are done with elite gymnastics and wont be trying for the 2012 London Olympics? I guess we will have to wait and find out. If any one can verify this, that would be awesome!

UPDATE: According to USA Gymnastics, Bridget Sloan has verbally commited to Florida. Still no word about Ivana Hong.
