TOP's Results

Emma found out the results of her TOP's testing yesterday.

You can read about her testing here!

She was very excited because we checked the website earlier in the day and found out they were emailing the results to the coaches and that the National Testing Cut Off score had been lowered to 70 points instead of the 75 points from last year. We knew she was very close but it would all depend on the national scores.

2011 National Top's Testing Info 

Emma scored 69 points. 

She missed the opportunity to test at the National Training Center by 1 point. 

We are so unbelievably proud of her. A year ago at this time she could barely do 2 presses or hold her handstand for more than a few seconds. She has spent many many hours of her own time working toward this goal and she came so close. It is hard not to feel a little bit of disappointment and wonder why. But we are choosing to see it as a blessing. As a sign of great things to come!
