here's a story on her at Utah Gymnastics:

high competition - or competition high!
[quote]"Meets are always important, but these meets now, regionals and nationals, are so much more important to qualify for and compete against everyone," Postell said. "I like having that pressure, it's natural for me. I've always been the kind that can pull it out then."
The way Postell finds a little more in herself at the end of the season reminds Utah coach Greg Marsden of another Ute great, 1992 all-around champion Missy Marlowe.
"It's like they almost just survive the regular season or tolerate it," he said. "What motivates them is knowing they're going up against the best competition possible. She has learned to use the regular season to build toward the championships." [/quote]
what is wrong with the scoring!!
[quote]Since Utah is competing in Thursday's evening session, the prevailing thought is Postell will have a better chance at winning the all-around title since scores tend to rise in the later session. The last two all-around champions Schwikert (2005) and Kupets (2006) competed at night. [/quote]
