Quick hits from the Oregon State intrasquad on Dec. 15. Thanks to Oregon State and Robert Martinez for tweeting tidbits.
Vault
Savanna Force kicked things off with a Yurchenko full, had to pike it down.
Destinee Davis next. Big Yurchenko layout.
Sabrina Gill with a Yurchenko full, just a hop to the side.
Mary Jacobsen with the Beavers’ first 10.0 vault tonight, a Kaz full. (This per Oregon State and Robert Martinez’s tweets. This was almost certainly a Tsuk full or simply a Kaz, as a Kaz full would be a vault with two twists.)

Shireen Khamedoost tried to stick the Yurchenko full and had to hop.
Kaitlyn Yanish with a powerful Yurchenko full, has to take a big hop back.
Dani Dessaints does a Yurchenko half tonight. Big power and a step. Expect her to add the Yurchenko 1.5 at some point.
Vault – just one vault valued at 10.0 tonight with Mary. We could see Dani and Kaitlin upgrade to the Y1.5. Vaults looked good not yet great
