Lisa Wang won her third straight national all-around title this weekend in Houston, Texas. Wang also took home the gold on every individual apparatus (clubs, hoop, ribbon, and rope).

Unfortunately, the United States did not qualify any gymnasts to the Beijing Olympics, so this will be Wang's last competition. She told USA Gymnastics, "I loved being out there. It was great doing the sport that I love. It’s an amazing sport and it was an amazing part of my life.”

The junior all-around was won by Marlee Shape for the second year in a row.

Full results of the competition.
