[dancer4life8271996]

[xadpx]

Most high school gymnast cant do half those tricks you did. Some just do it for fun. Like 90 % of my team have never done gymnastics before in their life. Im the only one doing the tricks you do. lol

[gymnastandchocolate]

i went to a meet of hers and she got a 10.0 on vault once!

[Gymprincess2400]

I love her she goes to Mizzou now I believe (if not theres two girls witht he same name :) and I love watching her gymnastics!

[ninzbean]

[USAgymnast52]

[gymgirl12345678910]

Oh my gosh, you are amazing!!

[gibsong4489]

Get it Mary!

Janie

[StephenMichaelHewitt]

She was pretty awesome. Her beam routine is great, I think the only score that was higher than hers in qualifications was Becca Thone.

[TripleThreatCheer95]

wow you did this for high school! thats AMAZING!

[gymnasticsweetheart]

[USAgymnast52]

[luvsmileycyrus]

[xOlilgymchickyOx22]

[robert23232323]

Mary was so amazing to see. awesome!

[MGZolyn]

HIGH SCHOOL?!?!?!

that is so amazing :D!!

ha, in our state, it's against the rules to do vaults with back handsprings lol

(because of safety issues :P)

[volleyballfan21]

@MGZolyn wat state is that?

[piggyoinks247]

That was absolutely incredible. You deserved those scores!

[katiebaby093]

amazing

[ab0mb86]

i was there, beam should have been a 10.

flawless

[GymDog990]

YOUR AMAZING!!! And ggymm, that is NOT fat on her legs or arms or stomach, ITS MUSCLE! So just shut up and stop trying to cause a problem! Mary you did an AMAZING job!! And i think it shows, YOU GOT ALL FIRSTS!!! AWESOME!!!

[thierrylincolnmattsi]

Grande bosta...

[GymnastWhit]

That was awesome! Was she a former USA gymnast? And don't worry... at our state meets we cheer so much louder then that! Haha.

[USAgymnast52]

yea she competed in USAG as a level 10

[lifelaughlove06]

wow! anyone know where she is going to college? Full ride somewhere?

[USAgymnast52]

she is going to do college gymnastics at University of Missouri. im not sure if it was a full ride

[siljed30492]

Wow! She's GREAT!!=D

[Jessiewatgymgirl]

You are the best gymnast I know and you don't deserve these rude comments from losers! and there are plenty of meets where people cheer that loudly so whoever wrote that is so stupid! mary did club and high school and she dominated both so you can all shut your mouths and quit being jealous! i love you mary!

[Jessiewatgymgirl]

MARY! you are soo awesome don't listen to these wannabe gymnasts they suck! at everything! your perfect and mizzou is one of the best schools in the NCAA so that freak doesn't know what he\she\it is talking about!

[ggymm]

She had pretty good skills but needs work on flexibility and choreography. If she lost about 10 more pounds she will do better. She will need to get more difficulty in her routines to do well at NCAA. University of Missouri isn't one of the good gymnastics schools in NCAA. I wish her the best of luck! You go girl!

[Jessiewatgymgirl]

dont ever tell a gymnast to lose weight u jerk

[gymnastandchocolate]

@ggymm dont tell a gymnast to loose weight. it is muscle and she obviously doesnt nned to because she did amazing!!! i think i was at this meet. I am going to the same highschool as her!

[wowkidme23]

shes good, really good.

but idk if shes as good as that girl from michigan.

meaghan mcwhorter..

shes sweet.

[Sivado10]

She is pretty talented for a high school gymnast, unfortunately, she is a club gymnast and should not compete at the high school level.

[stwilson701]

GOOD FOR YOU... this is what gymnastics is supposed to be - fun and awesome. You did good routines and the judges awarded you for it... don't listen to some of these crazy people who said you were over scored.... they are the people who kill the sport by making the standards so ridiculously high that no one can achieve them.... keep it up... Where are you doing NCAA at???

[USAgymnast52]

sry im not Mary Burke, i just made the video, but thanks so much for the nice comment!!!! She will be doing NCAA at University of Missouri

[joHippie69]

ofcorse she won AA and every event. i dont ever remember seeng any other high school gymnast doing yorchenkos, pac saltos or double pikes.

[lilsnowskier711]

Sami Piotrowski from Naperville North does yerchenkos and she has a double pike. go check out her vids. she doesnt do pac saltos. but Sami placed like 5th on floor, so im pretty sure there are at least 5 girls doing IHSA doing double pikes.

[xmaestro]

Come to Illinois then, there are many Level 10's and every now and then former elites competing in H.S.

[locallibrary]

I don't know, I think it depends on the school and the event. If it's a dual meet between two small schools, yeah, there won't be much cheering. But if it's state, well...there's a big difference.

[backflipboy27]

wow, this meet was incredibly overscored

[USAgymnast52]

its a high school gymnastics meet, they score a lot easier than USAG. but Mary does also compete USAG once the high school season is over and shes a level 10.

[backflipboy27]

yes I'm aware....she was overscored, even for high school

[USAgymnast52]

no shes not, r u kidding me, this is how all high school meets r scored, especially if ur as good as her!

[xmaestro]

Not to take away from her awesome performance, but certain teams in Illinois are favored as well.

[KYLiz113]

The crowd yelling "Come on Maryyyyyyyyy!" in the is video was so annoying I had to turn volume off, but otherwise amazing gymnast!

[USAgymnast52]

have u ever been to a gymnastics meet???? all you hear is yelling!!!

[KYLiz113]

Thank you.

[Jessiewatgymgirl]

you're annoying...don't be jealous bcuz nobody cheers for you

[pottergirl7]

she is good-better than Kim Strother on FordModels (I am in a youtube rivalry with her-lol) AMAZING!

[lilsnowskier711]

club gymnast gone high school, im guessing?

are you(she?) going to do college gymnastics?

[USAgymnast52]

Yes she is a club gymnast that went high school. I am not Mary, but she is going to do college gymnastics at University of Missouri.

[Smileystar6]

Mary Burke is amazing! I am so proud of what both Mary and Katie have done.. They are truly awesome & undoubtedly talented girls! Love them!

[stellarx3]

i was there!!!!!!!!!!

[gbnflipsta]

i was there and it was amazin how excited people were after she got off beam... everyone was yelling "10! 10!" i know she had a slight leg bend on her bhs bhs layout but it was a beautiful routine!

[USAgymnast52]

yea i remember that. it was so much fun!

[gymrat655]
