What altitude? North Shore Rhythmics gymnasts didn't let the 6,000-foot elevation at Colorado Springs get in the way of their performances at the Rhythmic Challenge Feb. 14-16. The U.S. senior national group (Sharon Dassouli, Monica Rokhman, Jenny Rokhman, Natalie McGiffert, Laura Tutunikov, Kseniya Masterova, and Alisa Kano) wowed the crowd each day. And NSR won all 10 of the gold medals at the Challenge! (Jazzy Kerber and Laura Zeng won the senior and junior all-around titles and the individual titles in hoop, ball, clubs, and ribbon.)
Congratulations to all North Shore Rhythmics gymnasts for their wonderful performances at the Rhythmic Challenge and Invitational at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs over President's Day weekend! For more information, for scores, and for photos by Diane Bidermann (who will be taking pictures at our regional championships over Mother's Day weekend), please visit the USA Gymnastics' rhythmic page: Talk about a Rocky Mountain high! North Shore Rhythmics gymnasts are more than 6,000 feet above seat level in Colorado Springs, where they're competing at USA Gymnastics's 2010 Rhythmic Invitational and Challenge Feb. 12-14. The NSR girls, levels 7 through 10, are also checking out the U.S. Olympic Training Center facilities and sightseeing at places like the Cave of the Winds.
