Team USA Women win Pan American Games, Gymnasts advance to Finals


The first day of competition has just concluded in Guadalajara at the 2011 Pan American Games with the women's Team Final. To no surprise, Team USA took home the gold medal. Canada, competing their same team from Tokyo minus Dominique Pegg (injured) took the silver, and Mexico won the bronze medal to the delight of the home crowd. 
 
The team competition was perhaps a bit closer than US fans may have expected after the US girls struggled on beam including a shocking two falls from reigning Olympic beam Champion Shawn Johnson! video here. The complete US team consisted of Bridgette Caquatto, Jessie DeZiel, Brandie Jay, Shawn Johnson, Grace McLaughlin and Bridget Sloan.
