Over 400 gymnasts in all age groups and fifty in her age group. Teams from Richmond, Lexington, two from Louisville, and others were represented. Presley is on the E-Town team, Becca's Place A program dedicated to Becca, a teen gymnast who died in a car wreck on her way to school a few years ago. Her parents opened the gym in 2003 but after her death closed it for 18 months.
Her sisters,, who were also gymnasts, took over the program at that time.

Presleys first meet was in Richmond and she didnt do as well. Those meets are huge undertakings by the way.
She is quite the athlete by any measure. When she was three or four she would stand on her head and yell Look Paw Paw! She can flip, cartwheel, and do the splits as well as any cheerleader, but to see her work the beam and vault is amazing. She still struggles on the uneven bars a bit but does a very good floor routine.

She earned four medals in this, her third meet.

Needless to say, Im very proud of her.

Young lady has style and grace. Will be rooting for her in a few years hopefully wearing the blue and white.
