    You will never convince me that Konnor would not have been on the Paris squad if not for the injury that happened moments after this beam. She was absolutely so strong on all events in PT and warm ups - that spot was hers. So much poise and skill to not have any worlds/ olympic level accolades. Wishing her a full recovery, a continued dominating NCAA career, and if she wants it-> LA 2028. May she recover like Andrade has through so many injuries, to become one of the world's best ever; she has the potential.

      I think you’ll find she’s got the determination to make a strong comeback and try for the 2028 squad. Girl has overcome a lot, I too hope it doesn’t derail things.

      @@saragrant9749 If anyone can do it, I have no doubt Konnor can! I will be so here for it. She's been on my dream Paris squad even when some folks weren't sure if she'd come back elite or not... I 100% believe she has the potential to be 2028 home turf AA champ, if she wants it!

      I heard she was doing her Chuso on floor again, had a nice DTY, and her UB form was impeccable. Would've been such an awesome comeback story, but holding out hope for next quad!

      She started college this year, and her team LSU won the national championships for the first time ever! She will most likely concentrate on college for now, but there is no reason she can't try for worlds or Olympics as well, or after she graduates.
