Routine Videos: (Editor’s Note: The quality of these videos is not up to the usual quality of this blog. I apologize for that. Every effort will be made to prevent issues like this in the future. Sometimes they are unavoidable, but a different camera placement could have prevented almost all of the issues and for that I am sorry to fans interested and to the athletes who I am attempting to chronicle.)

Editor’s note: UNH’s Bars rotations was missed for reasons. LIU’s Isabella Savino’s vault was missed as I was trying to manage the camera for two other apparatus. I apologize.
