According to comments earlier in this thread, they practiced at an established gym, with an experienced coach, and they were level 5 athletes. While their NCA performance lacked stamina and routine repetition, it didn't appear any more or less "dangerous" than any other level 5 team with the same amount of reps in, apples to apples. In other words, compare her team of a few months to other teams in August-September.
What I saw were parents willing to give her a shot at a "dream team" and she took the opportunity and did it in a responsible manner when it came to a gym, a coach, and qualified athletes. Now, if you want to argue she under estimated "time" or "athlete commitment" I'll go down that road with you. But, I know of a team that was put together a couple of months ago, taking one shot at a bid this weekend, is currently in first place against many very good teams, and perhaps will earn a bid. Gabi was given an opportunity of a life time, she took it, and was very responsible in her approach. She doesn't need a "yay" or "I told you so" from anyone, she is leaps and bounds ahead of anyone, any age, wanting to start up their own business.
