I honestly think it comes down to the off season. What you do in the off season is often more important than what you do during the season. A question that I think these girls should be asking one another as soon as the season ends is, “What is one thing we can each do in the off season to come back stronger next season?”

For some the answer to that is unfortunately surgery and the resulting recovery. For some the answer is rest and recover. For others the answer is to prepare mentally and seek improvement there. But for others that can, the answer is to get into the gym and work on things. No you can’t go as hard as during season and no you can’t have your coaches working with you, but working on little things in the gym will go a long way.

I love Joe Burrow’s work ethic during the off season. I’ll bet if we asked Oklahoma what their off season looks like, we’d see a lot of hard work behind it. I’ll bet Florida did the same with their motivation not to be left behind at nationals this year.

This could be as simple as working flexibility while resting other areas. Maybe working on leaps to improve them or working a toe point or working stick drills. Whatever it takes...work those problem passes so they never lose their readiness! Come back in September for practice in shape for season.

Our most successful teams have had strong upper class leaders who have taken the charge on things like this. I believe I remember DD mention Sydney Ewing’s leadership in the off-season to challenge everyone to keep conditioning strong and keep nutrition top notch. It paid off majorly!

We certainly are not lacking in talent from last year. Our talent level is the same! Even with the injuries we have, we should be seeing some cleaner and better things.

That being said, I still believe whole heartedly in this team! They have a lot of fight in them and there is still plenty of time. We’ve got 2 meets this weekend to put up 2 strong scores. It is by no means over! They’ve got this! My confidence and faith is in them! Go crush it girls...we are all behind you!

LSU recruiting target Selena Harris qualified to the NL cup. Still awaiting for the results of some of our commits.

Also random thought. D'Antonio had a very good beam routine during her exhibition performance, but why in gods name is she doing that incredibly difficult leap series when she comes absolutely no where near the full split? The series alone cost her a full .10 of a point. Give her easier leaps, then we got a routine we can work with. She looked good though outside of that and she actually competed with some confidence. Keep working hard on cleaning up and that could eventually be a very usable routine.
