Team Romania: A Steady Team.

Romania has one of the strongest women's gymnastics team in the world, this is evident for three reasons: They have been in the medals at the past ten Olympic Games, which, by itself, is amazing. In 2000 and 2004, they won the team all-around! Wow! But, there has been a drought for gold since then, but still, getting gold twice is not bad. And they have great athletes, Simona Amanar (Notice the last name? Thats right, this is the girl who first did the Amanar), Catalina Ponor, and most importantly, Nadia Comeneci, all-around champ. They bred some great gymnasts, and are in the process of breeding more. I am excited to see the up-and-coming seniors who are going to represent Romania at Worlds, International, and Olympic Meets. The only thing I would recommend is that they breed some bar workers, because Romania needs them if they want to get silver, or even gold. But, Olympic Bronze, not to shabby. And the greatest thing about their bronze in 2012? They beat 2008 Team Champions, Team China. To beat China is an amazing thing, because, the Chinese have grace and elegance, and are really good at bars and beam. But, they did beat them, and I hope to see Romania beat China at Worlds, and hopefully, the Olympic Games!
