After finishing yesterday's workout.

**Announcements, etc...** 

• Regionals update: The Regionals team invites are going out right now and, unfortunately, we are sitting in 32 place... just 2 spots out from qualifying.  If a few of the teams don't accept their invite, we would then still be in the running, but as it sits right now, we won't be sending a team to Regionals.  Even still, it was a very strong showing by our gym and our athletes (super proud of everyone!)... and this just means we will be putting all of our focus on supporting Chelsea as she takes on NorCal's best in the individual competition.  Go Chelsea!!!
