@@otherworld11 Nope. They will have to take semesters off from college to practice, or do online college like Simone. Usually athletes that compete in the NCAA(College gymnasts) never return to elite gymnastics, Mykayla Skinner being the only exception. So I'm sure Grace won't be coming back but there's a small chance that Suni might be coming back.
@@Marvelerence Of course they can! 🤦♀️ They wouldn’t HAVE to take a semester off either if they didn’t want too. Jordyn Weiber was at UCLA and training for the Olympics. She ended up giving up that goal of the Olympics because it was too hard to be a team assistant for Bruins gymnastics AND train. She said she wanted to be there for her team 100% and stop training for the Olympics. The reason why Simone pulled out of UCLA after she verbally committed was because she decided to go pro voiding her scholarship. It really just all depends on the person. Back in 2008 everyone was in awe over the fact Shawn Johnson attended regular public high school and was training for Beijing. It’s not like there is a mandatory rule that says you have to train for 8+ hours a day. 4 solid hours is better than 8 tired under performed hours. I think the lack of return for NCAA u mentioned has more to do with the fact they already accomplished a goal they had been working toward sense they we’re little girls so they feel accomplished and ready for a new chapter. I also think it has to do with once they start competing with their team for their school that that fills any they might have had. With Skinner she was only an alternate so she felt like she had unfinished business she had to complete before moving on to the next chapter of life. Shallon Olsen who is a vaulter on the Canadian team goes to the University of Alabama and competes for them in NCAA gymnastics. The 2021 Olympics was her second consecutive one.
@@alinaporter3846 Well, I'm sure it's technically possible to do both, but it will be incredibly difficult and that's why you don't see many gymnasts taking that path. Suni and Grace have already accomplished a lot in their career, if they were to try out for the Olympics, I'm sure they would want to do even better in the 2024 Olympics. Doing that requires extreme dedication. I think NCAA gymnasts aren't allowed to train more than 20 hours a week. Suni and Grace will have to put in even more effort than that in order to excel. Not to mention NCAA rules and routines are so different from elite, it would be very difficult to train for both at the same time.
This shown how great this country made of, disregard to what races, gender, and what’s colors of your skin. Thank you to the people’s of Minnesota for welcome home these two young American lady as they’re returning home. Your loves and your supports will thrives many young Americans Gymnast to comes. Congratulations to Sunisa & Grace for their returns home safely.
One thing I notice is that there were so many kids wanting her autograph and picture with her, and she definitely missed a lot of them. It would be nice if those kids that she missed get another chance at the upcoming parade.
Congrats to both Grace and Suni! At a time of struggle, the Twin Cities and Minnesotans so much needed this uplifting news! America is proud of you. We are proud of what you stand for by representing the red, white, and blue.
I am so proud of these young ladies. They desert all the credit and warm welcome home, they represent the US very well. Great job young ladies. May the Lord bless you and your family.
This literally brought me to tears, to see how beautiful ppl are. The love they have for these amazing ladies so beautiful and felt the love pouring for them. WELCOME HOME LADIES.
So proud of you Suni... this is a very special time for the Hmong community. Not only did you do it for yourself and your family.. you also did it for the Hmong people. ... you represented with greatness. Sending you love from Cali from another Hmong American ❤❤❤
And the American people. * Just for future reference because when you just say/write it like that some people might take it the wrong way and be offended by it. After all, Sunisa is an American.
Wherever we Hmong people migrated to we call that place our home. We cherish and loved it with all our heart. Sunisa, you had bring the greatest honor to the Hmong people around the world. Thank you and welcome home. ❤️
Love how the kids ask to take a photo with them and saying thank you at the end, as “little and so basic” starts with good manners even speaks a lot of who and how their parents are 🥰...Thank You Parents and Guardians 💯❣️
I am happy and so proud of Sunisa Lee, she is awesome and represent the Hmong people throughout the world. So proud of these two young ladies. Tears of joy 🥲!!
Great wonderful Fantastic Welcome Olympic Champion! USA 🇺🇸 2020 Tokyo Olympic Gymnastics Pride Americans!for Young Generations Around the World Champions.. God bless USA 🇺🇸
That is what a true American is, our ancestors fought a war to bring us here. My hmong people we can do anything. Let's stick together and make the ones who lost their lives so we can live free and bring them honor. We may not have a country but we do have our history and our future.
I hope Suni's recognition can make all of us re-think our identity as Americans from different ethnicities and walks of life amidst all the chaos going on right now, and especially the racism against Asian Americans. We are all Americans, by nationality, but we come from a diverse background. What unites us is the flag we pledge allegiance to. What unites us is the innovation created from our melting pot. Please don't break America apart because our colors are different. Please don't say anymore that America does not belong to Asian Americans. Also, not all Asian Americans come from wealthy backgrounds, and we are not all privileged. Suni's story is proof of what a typical Asian American immigrant family goes through to reach the top--hard work, determination, and the motivation to do it for our family. We did not have rich uncles or inheritance from our granddads. Suni did this first and foremost for her family, herself, and for America, in this order. We're so proud of her, for representing America on world stage, and for representing Asian Americans. Please be mindful the next time you want to shout racial slurs against someone of Asian descent.
SunisaLee AMERICAN gymnast super star she make America proud she also make Hmoong peaple around thewolrd so proud of her may God be with her all the time.
What about other Olympians who competed and are from MN too? O.o. Cant forget about them...Congrats to all Olympians and those from MN. Happy for Grace and Suni ^_^
Many sports teams/athletes choose to leave at different times depending on competition schedule and other priorities. The closing ceremony isn’t until 8/8. Team USA gymnastics typically leaves early.
Those graphers at the end of the videos are just going to sell Suni's autographs. They print multiples of the same image so they can sell on eBay and Facebook. Scums.
who is that open mouth breather in the white shirt standing behind the two Olympic medalist@30:49?, is he another politician of opportunity who just wanted to stand there but don't care about spreading COVID?
Where Is all the Hmong supporters ? Over 60,000 Hmong in Minniesota area, but yet all I see are true American supporting her. As I am also Hmong I feel embarrassed for our people
I am Asian American and I am proud of Suni and Grace I hope to see them at Paris 2024. Congrats ladies!
they are both 18 but can they pursue that dream and also go to college?

So proud of these young ladies but my heart cries tears of joy for Sunisa as I am Hmong.
As a Hmong-American, I've been calling USA my home for many years now. Sunisa just solidify that. Hearing the chant "USA" brought me to tears.
I am just some American and I CRY 😢 about all this! Suni Lee and her Hmong family and community ARE what are so good about America. 🌹
Not Hmong, but white, & want Hmong to know am so happy for Sunisa Lee as for the Hmong community
Me too
Me also in tears

@BKK French and Russian are 2 different nationalities... Chinese and Hmong are Not the same nationalities..

Who’s the guy that thinks he’s better than everyone else not wearing a mask?
Not staying for the closing ceremony? Or did Tokyo cancel that?
Because of the pandemic, athletes from all over the world have already returned home after the competition.
Because of COVID athletes have to leave within 48 hours of their last competition.

Y didn't the airport let sunisa and grace come out first
Love that shot at 49:50 .......now that's the REAL U.S.A.
Save your time and watch the one minute clips of this…
who is that open mouth breather in the white shirt standing behind the two Olympic medalist@30:49?, is he another politician of opportunity who just wanted to stand there but don't care about spreading COVID?
Tamil pasanga like panuga
Where Is all the Hmong supporters ? Over 60,000 Hmong in Minniesota area, but yet all I see are true American supporting her. As I am also Hmong I feel embarrassed for our people
You want to be crammed like sardines at the airport???
Yes Anna , if I was there I wouldn’t mind. This is a once in opportunity lifetime to show the world our support for her accomplishment.
Why aren't you out there then? Hypocrite
I am in San Diego, California .
I believe there was limited space..
first thank to american ppl to build her into super unique, later thank her parents
