Looks like the weather has wreaked havoc with the worlds schedule, and they’ve decided to just stay inside for the rest of the tournament rounds. Some first impressions just scanning through the results:
1. Lopez/Leitner/Marron hitting an execution score of 29.7. One bobble routine? Need to see that video immediately!
2. Andrea Meola/Piccio Cusma winning their pairs prelim pool over Dave Lewis/Pat Marron with an Execution score of 28.5. Looks like a one drop routine.
3. Imperiale/Sanna, Kenny/Wentzel and Murphy/Schiller finishing within 0.6 of one another in Pool A. Pairs could be a huge dogfight as we progress. Then again, prelims can be deceiving as teams play with a variety of prepared routines vs. jams. We’ll get a much better idea of the depth of the field in the semis Saturday.
4. Small margins in three of four pairs prelims to make the semifinals. Sanchez/Meier snuck by Occorsio/Coppo by 0.3, Hays/Hess scored only 1.1 more than Willett/Lo-a-sjoe, and Galliani/Cappelman were only 1.2 ahead of Apriani/Torzolini.
5. Lori Daniels and Bianca Strunz making waves in pairs. They passed through the qualification round yesterday. Today they placed third in their pairs pool to move to the semifinals.
