With an AA score of 57.050 Jordan Chiles won the all-around!! She is 1 of only 11 U.S. gymnasts to break 57 in the 2017-2020 quad.

Jordan was also 1st on vault, floor, and tied for 1st on beam at the Winter Cup.

Shilese Jones earned 2nd place with a score of 55.100. She was also 3rd on bars and 3rd on floor. She is certainly someone to watch.

I'm so proud of these two. I'm also proud of Konnor even though she didn't do the all around and I'm glad to see more and more black people on the podium in gymnastics.

I just hope on the MAG side we can see the likes of Donnell Whittenberg and Marvin Kimble there too.

Fantastic! It's great that little Black girls have role models like these.
