2016 Oakland Classic “Putin’ on the Ritz”
Region 5 Gym Insider has not attended the Oakland Classic in a few years, however this year the Level 10 session was bigger and full of great competition. Oakland, Olympia, MAG, New Heights and Twistars brought there talents, high flying routines and amazing vaults to this years meet. Let me tell you it was a busy session to capture every routine and report back on everyone. However it was a fantastic meet full of amazing gymnastics, loud fans and great routines.
Something new and special at this years meet, was the Level 10 with the highest All-Around score received a beautiful pandora necklace. That winner was Gabryel Wilson from MAG with an AA score of 38.750.

Oakland Classic Results
UGA Wins, Brooks Tops the AA at 2016 UGA WInter Classic
The convention hall was loud and rocking at the 2016 UGA Winter Classic hosted by United Gymnastics Academy. As any competition at the beginning of the season there were some highs and lows through out. UGA won the team competition lead by senior Emili Dobronics who won the senior age group AA title and posted the top floor score of the competition. The top AA performance of the meet came from Aspire’s Sierra Brooks despite a huge wobble on beam (almost matrix like save) while also taking home top honors on bars. Sierra’s teammate at Aspire, Hanna Bergeson, posted the top beam score of the day to finish 2nd AA in the senior age group and contribute to the 2nd place team finish for Aspire.
