The last USA women's training camp for 2013 concluded today, at the Karolyi Ranch outside of Houston, Texas.
In addition to confirming athletes for international assignments, Kyla Ross, Brenna Dowell and Simone Biles were awarded with world championship rings to commemorate their success in Antwerp, Belgium at the World Championships.
