Sabrina Vega is a solid performer on every event, and competes with an artistry that belies her young age. Just 17, she was a key contributor to the US team's gold medal at 2011 worlds. At the 2012 Olympic Trials she had some strong routines, but without a stand-out event or two, and with a low 10th place all-around finish, she wasn't selected for the team. Vega has indicated that she may continue training for 2016.
