Overview
- Rivera rallied from fourth after the first day to win on Sunday with a two-day total of 111.950, edging training partner Claire Pease by 1.15 points.
- She recovered from a day-one fall on uneven bars and delivered steady bars, beam, floor and vault routines that put her into the lead during the final rotation.
- The final all-around standings placed Charleigh Bullock third, Reese Esponda fourth and Jade Carey fifth, with Rivera and Pease both representing WOGA.
- Four different gymnasts won the individual apparatus titles: Rivera on balance beam, Pease on uneven bars, Carey on vault and Esponda on floor.
- Nationals results now factor into World Championships selection, with a cross-country selection competition set for Sept. 29–Oct. 1 in Crossville where the five-woman team for October’s Worlds in the Netherlands will be named; Rivera is the first American woman not named Simone Biles to win back-to-back U.S. all-around titles since Jordyn Wieber.
