Bermudian Toby Madeiros has become a regional champion after winning the USA Gymnastics Men’s Region 8 Championships in Duluth, Georgia, at the weekend.
Madeiros qualified for the meet after winning the vault at the recent USAG Georgia Men’s State Championships in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and was up against competitors from Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi.
The 15-year-old was leading into his final event, the pommel, and needed a minimum score of 10.51 to secure the all-around title, which he achieved by scoring a 10.65.
His younger brother Isaac was also competing, improving his all-around score by 4.5 points and coming third on the floor.
The pair have qualified for the USAG Men’s Eastern National Championships in Cleveland, Ohio, on April 28.
