As a member of the 1987 U.S. national team, Dobran- sky bypassed the zone com- petition and went directly to the Classic. Her next event is the USA Championships in Houston July 7-10. The top 20 finishers from that meet ad- vance to the Olympic Trials in Salt Lake City in August. Six competitors, plus two alternates, will then advance to the Olympics in Seoul, South Korea in September. The Sterling Heights native says she continued her steady improvement at the Classic. "I did a lot better. I've just got to go to the championships in two weeks and hit, and show `em what I've got." Dobransky had an "in- teresting thing" happen dur- ing her compulsory exercises last weekend. While a storm raged outside, the gym's lights went out just before she dismounted from the balance beam. When the power returned, she repeated her dismount, and was awarded a score of 9.7 (of a possible 10.0) for the routine. That kind of coolness should help Dobransky in the next two meets. At Houston, she says, "I'd like to stick (per- form correctly) my beam routine . . . I'm trying some new stuff on (parallel) bars. And I'm going to be upgrading my dismount off the beam and hopefully just try to stay as consistent as I can." Consistency, says Dobran- sky, will be the key at the next two events. "You really want to hit. Because the name of the game at USA Championships is to go eight- for-eight," with no mistakes in all eight routines. In other words, "staying on the equip- ment." What are her chances to reach the Olympic Trials? "There's 28 gymansts com- peting" for the 20 spots at Salt Lake City, "and I have just as much chance, I guess, as everyone else." She is also philosophical about the high stakes of these events. "I'm just trying to take one meet at a time and not thinking of it as Olympic Trials — I'm thinking of it as another meet. Then after I'm done and I realize what I did, then we'll see." Her workout schedule, 7:30 a.m. until noon every day with extra private time later in the day, "gets exhausting," she admits, "but it's much nicer with school out." Though the top U.S. gym- nysts are competing for an ex- ceptional prize — Olympic participation — Dobransky describes the feeling among the group of mostly high school-age girls as "almost like we're a big family." She adds, "You go out there and perform as good as you can and then, basically, the judges decide your score."
