There were over 200 female competitors who took the stage last night in the Jr. Nationals prejudging. It was nice to see the numbers up in fitness for each of the three classes. The female bodybuilders look good and not a freak show like in many year's past. The figure has four pro cards up for grabs and each class is tough. The A class is by far the toughest, the top three battling it will be between Jennifer Lynn Gates, Huong Arcinas and Meriza DeGuzman. My guess is it is very close and will come down to who has the better round in the 2 piece today between Huong and Jennifer.
I think the overall winner will come from the E class, Tana Clough. She looked to be the most polished and poised competitor in the show. Despite being scolded for not moving her hand down to her side, she should win her class with straight 1s and battle it out for one of the four pro cards.
Another round of prejudging this morning.
