she was 2nd AA at nationals that year. what was the reason they used 2 drop her from the team? especially on UB, their weakest event at 91 WCs, she could've challenged for the podium.
I loved Woolsey also, but I would have said Campi was a better performer. Her compulsories were far supieror to Sandy's and her beam was light years better. However, Sandy was better on floor, vault and they were about equal on bars. It;s hard to say if she deserved the spot because she retired at the end of 1991. The problem with Sandy was that she didnt have very good form on beam or vault, She also tended to look a little sluggish on the compulsories, She deserved the spot over Grivich!
Sandy was a much better gymnast than Michelle Campi, who was only awarded a spot on the team due to politics. Shame on Bela Karolyi and Steve Nunno for what they did to Sandy, and countless other gymnasts.
Agree in the sense that Grivich had no business being on that team. Sandy was better on all events especially bars and floor. Grivich was superior on beam but horrendous on bars.
But the first pass is a triple, right?

@rnjen2b1 Yes, the first pass is a triple twist.

I never got the hype surrounding her. She crossed her legs when twisting, had bad extension, and was unremarkable.

@FLACSC74 Hmm not so sure, Bruce had better form, and was better on bars and vault. They were even on floor and beam.

hey tide, was the last run a double or triple?

She ended with a double twist.

Judging by THIS routine alone, shows why she was the alternate. Michelle was definitely the more superior on floor with dancing and tumbling.
