Rivera wins senior all-around as Xfinity national team announced at Winter Cup
Hezly Rivera cruised to the 2026 Winter Cup senior women’s all-around title in Louisville on February 22, 2026, and the Senior Women’s National Team Presented by xfinity was named that evening. The result matters now because the national roster has been set for upcoming international assignments and will be reordered after the 2026 Xfinity U. S. Gymnastics Championships, creating a clear path to the next selection window.
Rivera’s dominant all-around performance
Rivera finished the senior women’s all-around with a 56. 750, leading the field the entire competition and posting scores above 14. 000 on each apparatus. She won balance beam with a 14. 200 and floor exercise with a 14. 100, took silver on uneven bars with a 14. 300, and recorded the third-highest single-vault score of the night with a 14. 150 on vault.
Podium finishers and apparatus champions
In her senior debut, Charleigh Bullock claimed the all-around silver with a 55. 200 and won uneven bars with a 14. 400. Claire Pease earned the all-around bronze with a 54. 350 and captured the vault title with a listed 14. 050 (14. 250; 13. 850). Those top-three all-around scores set the podium order for the night and produced multiple individual apparatus medals.
Senior Team Presented by Xfinity
The event concluded with the announcement of the 2026 Senior Women’s National Team Presented by Xfinity and with rosters set for upcoming international competitions. The National Team listing includes indications of international assignments and will be reordered following the 2026 Xfinity U. S. Gymnastics Championships on Aug. 6–9 (ET) in Phoenix, Arizona. That scheduled reorder will determine the team ranking heading into the next cycle of assignments.
Live coverage notes and field size
Live coverage of the weekend captured performance details from the competition in Louisville, where a compact field of senior elites tested for international assignments. A running live blog highlighted individual moments — for example, Claire Pease had a balance check on introductions, and Rivera’s DTY vault landed slightly shorter than some other top vaults but was credited as a landed vault. The live narrative underlined the immediate stakes: athletes were competing for places on the national roster and for selection to international events tied to those roster spots.
What comes next
The tangible next milestone is the 2026 Xfinity U. S. Gymnastics Championships, scheduled Aug. 6–9 (ET) in Phoenix, Arizona; following that meet the National Team will be reordered. That change will affect team rankings and may alter the order of athletes assigned to upcoming international competitions. For now, Rivera’s all-around title and the named Senior Women’s National Team set the selection picture for the months ahead.
