Orozco looks like he was the weight of the world on his shoulders. It makes me sad. Great story though, I agree. I read that he went pro and gave up his NCAA eligibility. Of course, he could have gotten a free college education at a great gymnastics school. I pray that he does well and has a way to make a living indefinitely -- and can help his family -- because he can't go back where that is concerned. So many kids want to be athletes, but young athletes so often get chewed up and spit out whether they are good or not. It was cool that Orozco's coach when he was young trained him for free. But if mom hadn't been willing and able to do all that driving, . . . .
It was good to see that he made the all around finals. Weird that the US qualified in first but that so few of ours guys are in individual finals. I don't understand the scoring.
