NCAA Championship Preview Part I

• A quiz on the Most Decorated Freshman Class of All Time
• Who is Spencer picking to win nationals? And what do each of the favorites need to do to get that title.
• The all-around competition is intense. Trinity? Jade? Suni? Leanne? Justice for form? We break it all down.

Jesolo

• We spend nearly as long talking about the opening ceremony at Jesolo as the ceremony itself took! But COME ON. We have to dissect this perfect insanity.
• Who impressed us at Jesolo, from McClain's multiple event titles, to Shilese's beam, to Asia D'Amato delivering in the all-around.
• Plus, nerding out about beam composition credit, McClain's insane Pak save, a Norah Flatley moment, Romania hopefulness (????), and Ellie Black being all Ellie Black.

NCAA Championships Preview Part II

• The race between Utah and Alabama to advance out of the semifinal will get serious. And can Auburn really upset Michigan to get to the championship?
• If there's any justice in the world, who will win the event titles? We throw a bunch of names out there to see if any of them stick.
