Peng-Peng Lee- UCLA (Sophomore)

Lee is going to be a crowd pleaser with her high risk and beautiful execution on bars. Lee performs an impressive full twisting bail and saposh 1/2. We look forward to seeing this high flying, crowd pleasing routine this season! 

 
 

Chelsea Davis

Chelsea Davis has proven herself to be one of the top bar workers in the nation over the past three years. Davis’ routine showcases a huge tkachev, flawless execution, topped off with a stellar double layout dismount. Davis will once again look to anchor the bar lineup for the Gym Dogs.  We look forward to seeing this standout bar routine one more year.

Georgia Dabritz is ready to make the most of her senior year on bars, by adding a new release.  Dabritz has added a beautiful Comaneci release.  Dabritz has scored two perfect 10s on bars in her career.  Dabritz is unique on bars as she does NOT wear grips on her hands.  On bars she shows great control with her handstands and execution within her beautiful routine.  She has a great jaeger and beautiful full twisting double back dismount.  We look forward to seeing Dabritz succeed with this new bar routine.
