Published in Gymnastics Canada GymnastiqueMen's National Team Newsletter, May 2000- Hardy FinkMore about KyleSome think that Kyle Shewfelt came out of nowhere, but that is quite wrong. And international success is also not new to him. Kyle has competed internationally nine times - twice in age group, twice as a junior, and now, though still of junior age for all of 2000, five times in succession as a senior. He was a finalist in all nine competitions and has been a medalist in six of those competitions. He failed to medal only in his first three senior competitions. Kyle is also Canadian Senior Champion on floor and vault. 1996 Austrian Youth Invitational / 1st - FX / 3rd - Vault 1996 Hungarian Youth Invitational / 1st - Vault / 2nd - FX / 6th - AA 1998 World Youth Games, Moscow / 1st - FX 1999 Canada vs Germany Junior / 1st - FX / 1st - Vault 1999 Taiwan Invitational / 5th - Vault / 8th - FX 2000 World Cup, Montreaux, Switzerland / 7th - FX 2000 World Cup, Cottbus, Germany / 7th - FX 2000 World Cup, Glasgow, Scotland / 3rd - FX 2000 Pacific Alliance, New Zealand / 1st - Vault (tie) / 3rd - FX |
