- Putting together the highest-scoring World Championship team based on the highest score achieved by these gymnasts at the U.S. Championship. The worlds team will consist of 5 gymnasts, with 4 gymnasts competing on each event during team qualifications.

I would put simone, Shilese leanne in the AA jocselyn on vault and floor and skye on bars and beam, unless Jordan has a good running at camp that is my line up
SIMONE BILES IS ABSOLUTELY FREAKIN AMAZING!!!...THE G.O.A.T.!!!...👑👑👑...DROP THE 🎤 🎤🎤
I love leanne and kaliya on this team but I feel the true highest scoring team and medal count would have Simone, joscelyn, shilese, skye, and suni. Another potential bars, beam, and vault medal. Anyone of them can make floor finals.
Suni will not go to Worlds Selection camp.
She was invited, but she declined due to her health.
I’d be okay with Suni pending how she performs at trials, but Joscelyn I think would get hammered way too hard in artistry and form deductions. Plus, Leanne has beaten her at every competition this year, so I think replacing her with Joscelyn would be blasphemous 😅 BUT, we’ll just have to see how trials goes.
@nathanlubeck6585 Leanne has beaten her for every AA competition, but you can't build a team on All Arounders, especially if you want a chance at an Event Medal. And let's face it- Simone Biles and Shilese Jones have the AA locked up right now. Neither Leanne Wong nor Skyle Blakely really make the team as AA gymnasts, because they won't have a shot beating the Top 2, and won't have a chance to medal.
Joscelyn Roberson, however, is significantly more likely to win a Vault medal than Leanne is. Josceyln won the US Vault title this year, and Leanne was 4th. (Roberson would have been 2nd, and Wong would have been 5th had Simone competed 2 vaults both nights, but she didnt).
It's the same with McKayla Maroney or Madison Kocian making their Olympic Teams. Being the 4th or 5th best AA is practically meaningless when you're trying to make the Worlds or Olympics team unless you happen to be Top 3 on another event with a chance to medal.
@@blakegillpuente3904 leanne could possibly make floor finals, probably 2pced but not impossible. She can be used on every event in team final, especially beam and bars, which Joscelyn's bars are def not useable and her beam seems rough.
@youssef8090 I agree- Leanne is 100% better for AA. My point is that for Team Finals, we do not *need* Leanne Wong more than we could use Joscelyn Roberson on VT.
VT: Simone + Skye + Shilese
UB: Shilese + Simone + Skye
BB: Simone + Skye + Shilese
FX: Simone + Kaliya + Shilese
That is probably what we're looking at so far (at least for Worlds 2023-- it is WAY too early to be building the 2024 Olympic Team). With those in mind, we can either pick Leanne or Josceyln. If we pick Leanne, she would most likely ONLY be used as a 4th placeholder during Qualifications bc she isn't Top 3 on any event. There would be no reason to take her except as a backup, basically. So, even if she does all four events in Qualifications, she is not going to be Top 2 out of the USA girls to get a chance for a medal EXCEPT for VT.
Joscelyn Roberson is the exact same, *EXCEPT* she will (and has) outscored Leanne on VT. And Joscelyn has the potential to score us 14.5+ on VT. Leanne is not going to score higher than that on ANY event. So, if we think about Team Finals, Joscelyn Roberson makes the most sense. She's #2 in the US on VT, while Leanne Wong isn't even Top 3 on any event despite being a better AAer.
will kaliya still be at worlds trials even tho she didn’t make the national team?
She has to get an invite and I think it’s quite probable she will.
She’s 2nd best in US on floor 100% she’ll get an invite
There’s still more spots on the team to fill, they didn’t expect everyone to be in Top shape yet. You Do have to be on the team to compete…when’s the next camp anyone know?
Glad to her she'll likely get an invite not only is she the 2nd best on floor in the US but she could've easily been too 8 if she didn't have a fluke happenstance with bars where her coach touched her and she uses the wrong mat which resulted in almost a half point in deductions!
@@zerekanthony2203not to mention she was great on vault too.
They need a UB/BB person to support Skye
That would be Leanne.
Correct me if I'm wrong.. Would Joscelyn technically make this team as a vault specialist over Leann, if we are going off of the highest scores achieved?
The highest-scoring team changes depending on whether you're looking at qualifications, where 4 gymnasts compete on each event versus team finals where only 3 gymnasts compete on each event. Leanne provides more in a team qualification scenario whereas Joscelyn contributes more in a team finals scenario. I chose to look at it from a team qualifications scenario but Joscelyn would be included in the team if you look at it differently!
@@TheGymnasticsSpotthey may want to prioritize individual medals where Josc is in the running for a vault medal, don’t think Leanne was top 3 in any single event at champs because the USA are the favourites for the team gold either way
@@Bxyxox no, u think they should play it safer
@@Bxyxoxif they are going for a vault medal I think Jade is more likely to medal on vault than Josc. She wasn’t in great form at nationals and still her day 2 vault average was higher than either day from Joscelyn (14.275). That score will be beaten by Biles, Andrade, Yeo, but Jade’s vault average from worlds last year was 14.516 which would beat Yeo for sure. I think at worlds trials we’ll see Jade’s vault score improve because she knows that’s her ticket to making the team right now.
So I’d say the team should be Simone Shilese Skye Leanne and Jade
@TheGymnasticsSpot Honestly, I can also see them focusing on Team Finals and not caring about Quals. As long as they Qualify in the Top 8 (and we absolutely will), what matters most is the highest possible 3 scores in Finals. The 4th event in Quals is totally meaningless unless someone else has a major mistake/fall.
No Joscelyn makes me so sad 😭
Joscelyn 🤩
Thanks
