<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Oklahoma is home to plenty of talent, and these gymnasts shine in their own ways. From powerful vaults to impressive bar execution and dynamic floor tumbling these gymnasts bring something that sets them apart. Take a look at some of Oklahoma's standout gymnasts and the events or skills to watch this upcoming season. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["3971"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae503715bfd8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Beautiful lines, effortless swing, and perfect landings describe everything Arkansas commit Mariah Moore brings to bars. Last season, that was shown at Nationals where Moore won the bar title. From her floaty shaposh to pak connection to her beautifully executed double layout dismount, Moore's routine is in a class of its own. This bar routine is certainly one to watch in her final Level 10 season before she heads to Fayetteville to join the Gymbacks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["4640"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae503715c00e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">To say Lailah Danzy brings power to vault and floor would be an understatement. Last season, she competed both a yurchenko double full on vault and a double layout on floor, showcasing impressive height and amplitude on both events. Despite generating incredible power, Danzy also shows air awareness, control and an ability to find her landings. Although she's an incredible all around gymnast, her vault and floor should be on everyone's radar this upcoming season. She has also been training a double layout full out upgrade on floor, which would be an exciting addition if she brings it to competition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["5424"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae503715c030"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Raynie Ketcher is a floor queen. Ketcher really stands out on this event, especially with the variety of tumbling passes she brings. From a whip to triple full to a round off 1 ½ punch front double full, Ketcher has an impressive skill set with plenty of options when putting her routine together. With so many difficult passes in her arsenal, her floor routine is one everyone should keep an eye on to see which passes she brings to competition this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["62737"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae503715c04f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lucille Baker is turning up the difficulty on floor as she prepares for the jump to Level 10. She's been putting in the work on some impressive upgrades, including a triple full and a front double full. Both passes bring exciting difficulty and give Baker plenty of options as she builds her new routine. With these upgrades in the works, Baker's floor routine is one to keep an eye on as she heads into her first Level 10 season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["5425"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae503715c06d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kendall Denton is an impressive all around gymnast, but her power and difficulty on vault and floor make these two events especially exciting to watch. On floor, she's been working an impressive double layout upgrade and on vault she is upping the difficulty and training an yurchenko double full. With both upgrades in the works, everyone should be on the lookout this upcoming season to see if Denton brings these big skills to competition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["98905"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae503715c08a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caitlyn Byrnes is bringing plenty of exciting upgrades to beam as she prepares to make the jump to Level 10. From a front toss to a beautiful front aerial to scale, Byrnes has been working on a variety of skills while continuing to build confidence and consistency in her connections. Byrnes is one to watch on beam as she puts together her routine for her first Level 10 season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
