US Olympic Gymnastic Team Keeps on Winning...

Another two medals for the US Gymnastics Team.  Silver in the Women's Individual Vault final and Gold in the Women's All-Around Final.  Congrats to both McKayla and Gabby!
 After performing a nearly perfect first vault, McKaya Maroney set up for her second and final vault of her Olympics, however it didn't end as perfectly as she planned it.  Falling on her second vault allowed Romania's Sandra Raluca Izbasa to hang onto Gold, with a score of 15.191, which Maroney took Silver with a score of 15.083 and Maria Paseka of Russia with the Bronze and a score of 15.050.
Miss Gabby Douglas is haven't the Olympics that every gymnasts is hoping for.  Winning Gold in the Team Final and now the Gold in the Individual All-Around Final. Beating the two Russians with a score of 62.232.  Silver went to Victoria Komova with a score of 61.973 and Bronze went to Aliya Mustafina with a score of 59.566. Another sweet sweet victory for the 16 year old American.
