The ongoing USA National team camp holds a special arrangement this time. The authority has previously mentioned that they will select 18 gymnasts from the Texan camp to represent Team USA in both the Pacific Rim Championships and the City of Jesolo Trophy. So elite gymnasts, including Simone Biles and others, looked up to the occasion eagerly. From the pack of the notable ones, the first day of the USA National team camp displayed Trinity Thomas, Reese Esponda, Katelyn Jong, and others. 

After a busy day in Katy, the USA Gymnastics served the leader board on X as the verification round ended. It was a mix of heartbreaks and merriment, after all. 

USA National Team camp ends the first day with competitive results 

As stars like Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, and Gabby Douglas missed the Texan camp, the limelight revolved around Trinity Thomas on the first day. The NCAA gymnastics legend is already looking for a comeback. So after the Winter Cup, in Katy, she made a hearty try to make her mark. However, as USA Gymnastics posted on Apr 3, Trinity ended her verification with an all-around score of 50.550. That score remained far behind Simone Biles’s practice mate’s achievement. 

In the updated list, Tiana Sumanasekera, the elite gymnast from World Champions Centre, Texas, closed the day in second position. Her all-around score, 52.750, remained behind Dulcy Caylor. Caylor continued her form from the 2024 DTB Pokal Mixed Cup which gave her the championship title. In Katy, the 16-year-old claimed the highest vault score yesterday. That eventually helped her to stay on top in the verification round. In the vault final, Reese Esponda made her stunning comeback.

After a disheartening 7th place in the Baku World Cup this year, the USA National team camp was her prized chance. Despite scoring less than 50 in the all-around mark, Reese’s vault score remained only second to Dulcy Caylor. On the other hand, Trinity Thomas’s floor final remained special. In the verification round, the 3x NCAA champion scored 13.150 on the floor final, the overall third-highest score. Before coming to the Texan camp, the 22-year-old gymnastics legend counted on such things. 

Trinity Thomas’s way of taking things into 

After bidding her farewell to the NCAA gymnastics, Trinity Thomas enjoyed her role as a teacher-athlete at the University of Florida. However, her chief concern has been to earn the Paris Olympics berth. In this quest, the elite gymnast has planned to channel things properly to not overburden the labor. Previously, her injury scare already kept her at bay while trying the big tournaments. So, this time, Trinity is taking things one at a time. 

Cherishing such endeavors, she once said, “I love gymnastics. It can be as big or as small as I want it to be. I still have fuel in the tank, so let’s see how much.” In the first of the USA National team camp, Trinity’s unwavering attitude made that statement more riveting.
