2012 Olympic Gymnastics Team (Women): The Fierce Five

By Amy Van Deusen, About.com Guide

Kyla Ross was the 2009 and 2010 US junior champ, and the silver medalist in 2011. She wasn't age eligible for most senior competitions like the Olympics until 2012, but competed like a veteran at the Games. She's strongest on bars and beam, placing second on bars, fourth on beam, and fourth all-around at the 2012 US nationals. The youngest member of the 2012 Olympic team, Ross earned strong scores on both bars and beam in the team final.
