Saleem on White: Leah is an outstanding all-around gymnast. She will bring in high level skills on all four events. I see her making an immediate impact in all four line-ups. I really enjoy her levelheaded approach to training. She has that same calm and determined demeanor in how she approaches life. She has wisdom beyond her years and doesn't seem to get phased by adversity. I fell in love with her calm confidence and easy-going personality.
