Expert gymnastics commentator Christina Chauvenet returns to discuss the 2026 GW Quad Meet!
Insightful analyst and all around cool cat Christina Chauvenet returns to recap the GW quad meet (Maryland, Towson, Temple, and George Washington). We discuss tight beam scoring, quad vs double-dual formats, broadcast camera choices, judges’ conferences, six-up-six-count scoring, stricter leap deductions, and raising difficulty requirements.
We also celebrate beloved athletes, including Maddie Komoroski, Deana Sheremeta, Amelia Budd, Adriana Hoffman, Aine Reade, Lola Montevago, Kyrstin Johnson, Isabella Minervini, and more!
