The return of the Kurt Thomas Invitational after a year hiatus proved to be quite advantageous for Chayse who competed Saturday night against a wide field of competitors. With only a misstep on the landing of an otherwise beautiful bar routine, Chayse began the night ready to raise the level of competition for everyone else. She finished the night with one gold, two silvers and a bronze which secured her a silver in the all around and an opportunity to participate the next afternoon in the finals competition.

Only the top 5 in each age group for levels 8 through 10 moved on to the finals to compete against each other regardless of age groups or levels. 60 of the best athletes from the previous day's competition went head to head on each of the four events where Chayse once again came to dominate the day with three of the top individual scores, including a 10.0 on the beam and the gold in the all around!

Congratulations Chayse! ... and good luck next weekend at the Metroplex Challenge.
