The US National Championships will end with the final session for the seniors.
The first night ended with Simone Biles sitting at the top of the leaderboard with a huge 60.1, 3.1 points ahead of Morgan Hurd, sitting in second with a 57.100. Simone was also the top finisher on every event. If she wins every event after night two, she will be the first woman since Dominique Dawes in 1994 to do so.
Will she be the next Dominique Dawes? Will Morgan and Simone be the ones to beat this quad? Find out, follow along. Refresh the page for all the good stuff!

Time for the senior session of the GK US Classic.
This is super exciting because tonight, we will see the return of the one and only Simone Biles. Really, this should just be the "Simone Classic" because, Simone.
She's competing with a new crop of senior athletes that include defending world champion, Morgan Hurd, Jade Carey and Riley McCusker among others.
Follow along with the Simone party and refresh the page every 5-10 minutes or so (I promise, this won't ALL be about Simone).
