Looks great. Maybe just tighter on the last one.

My personal preference would be to crop much tighter. To wit:

I do agree it does make the photos look better. It helps to have another set of eyes with a different perspective.

Henry, I'm glad you did not crop out the smiley face.

I know this light sucks but I'd still WB adjust and kill that yellow tint.

I agree and I tried a little but i think i was going too far, the girls legs were coming out ghostly white. It is the middle of winter and I did not want them too pale.
However, I will go back and attempt some more adjustments and see if I can find a sweet spot.

Thanks again.

I like the tighter crops. I may also desaturate the yellow and orange channels a bit or cool down the WB.

I like the tighter crops as well--it cuts down on distractions in the background and puts the focus on the gymnast.

White balance is hard at these meets--you might try using a black and white filter for those shots that you really like but just can't get the color tone to come out right. Again, just a thought. Sometimes it works for the shot, sometimes it doesn't.
