Best known for her standout work on floor, Kelly McDonough is quickly becoming an athlete to watch on beam as well. In her first Level 10 season, she showed just how much potential she has on the event, posting an impressive 9.55. That performance, combined with the upgrades she is developing, makes her beam work particularly intriguing heading into next season. McDonough has a solid skill set along with upgrades coming, including a piked front toss, back handspring-layout stepout, front aerial-back handspring series, and switch leap-Gainer full dismount. If she brings these skills into competition, she could make a significant jump in difficulty while adding another strong event to her repertoire. With her proven competitive ability and continued development, McDonough is one to keep an eye on as she expands her beam presence.
