NCAA Championships Recap and Jaime Santos Esq explains the NCAA case before the Supreme Court
BREAKING NEWS
- We reached out to USAG about Jade Carey's Olympic spot, whether she's going to compete at Trials, and whether she'll be considered for the main team. Their answer was wild. And now we have some additional questions:
- "Based on our understanding of the current FIG qualification rules, we believe Jade Carey\u2019s performances on the floor exercise in the World Cup Series have mathematically qualified her, by name, to the Tokyo Olympic Games. Barring any rule changes, we anticipate that FIG will award her the spot. We are extremely proud of Jade\u2019s performance on the world stage, which earned her this well-deserved opportunity. This path \u2013 to pursue the opportunity for an individual qualification \u2013 was open to certain qualified national team athletes. No other eligible athletes opted to pursue this qualification route. We anticipate that Jade will be competing at Trials. Unless she accepts the individual spot beforehand, Jade would be eligible to make the four-person team. At this time, FIG has not announced when they will officially award the spot or whether they will impose a deadline for acceptance. In any event, the choice to accept or reject the qualified spot is hers, and she has the full support of USA Gymnastics in any outcome."
