Sam Mikulak
is the new men's senior National Champion after he scored an impressive 183.650 all-around over two days of competition. Donnell Whittenburg came in second with a 179.300. Chris Brooks secured bronze with a total of 177.150. 

Steven Legendre won floor with a 31.300, Alex Naddour took the gold on pommel horse with a 30.600, and Whittenburg won rings after two great performances totaling a 32.00. Mikulak won vault and parallel bars with scores of 30.850 and 31.550 respectively. Brooks took the high bar title with a 31.350. 

In rotation one, Legendre kicked off the competition with an incredible floor routine—showing huge tumbling for a rotation-high 15.650. Yul Moldauer wowed the crowd with big, clean tumbling as well as his flare work, scoring a 14.90. Michael Reid had a solid 14.650 on pommel horse. Naddour competed a nice rings set for a 14.90. Paul Ruggeri led the pack on vault with a 15.450, which put him in second after one. Jonathan Horton and Danell Leyva both shined on parallel bars, scoring 15.250 and 15.350 respectively. Akashi Modi followed them with an impressive 15.40.

The high bar got the best of the top competitors in the first rotation. Mikulak took a rough fall off the high bar, peeling on a giant and flying to his stomach, but he remounted to big cheers from a supportive crowd and finished strong. He still scored a 14.60 to keep the lead after one. Whittenburg fell on his Cassina, which has been giving him issues lately, and scored a 13.00. He came into the meet in second, but fell to fifth after one rotation. 

In rotation two, Whittenburg and Mikulak came back with a vengeance and absolutely rocked their floor routines. Whittenburg posted a 15.70 and Mikulak a 15.80. Eddie Penev also had an amazingly clean routine for 15.60. Moldauer led the pommel horse in the rotation with a 14.45. Steven Lacombe posted a big 15.70 on rings. Brooks came on strong on parallel bars with a 15.70, which moved him into third after two. Ruggeri showed a solid routine for a 14.85 to keep his second position. 

The high bar plagued the top contenders yet again, as Horton took a fall on a release and scored a 13.550 and Leyva took a fall for a 14.30. 

Rotation three started with a great pommel horse routine from Whittenburg for a 14.35. Horton nailed his floor routine for a big 15.150. Leyva also had a nice routine and scored 14.90. Mikulak performed a great pommel horse routine and scored a rotation-high 14.80, keeping a solid lead of over three points. Legendre had the highlight rings routine of a 15.00.

In rotation four, Ruggeri had a very solid floor routine, including his incredible Arabian double front layout. He scored a 15.30. Brooks put up a great floor routine as well for a 14.70. Horton had a fall on pommels and had a 12.450. Leyva had an issue on his pommel horse dismount, and only scored a 13.35. Modi had the rotation-high 14.60 on pommel.

Mikulak competed a very solid routine on rings for a 15.50 and Kimble received a 15.40. Whittenburg showed such strength and control and a stuck double double layout dismount for a phenomenal 16.10. After ten of twelve total rotations, Mikulak had a solid lead, Brooks was in second and Whittenburg held the third spot. 

In the fifth rotation, Mikulak hit his Kas double vault for a 15.35. Whittenburg moved into second with his 15.30 high-flying Dragulescu. Brooks scored a 13.30 on pommel horse and moved into third.

In the final rotation, Mikulak secured the gold with a 15.30 on his parallel bars routine. Whittenburg had a great routine with a double front half out stuck for a 15.20, and secured the silver. Brooks had a nice 15.050 rings routine to earn the bronze.
