Catalina Ponor
     
A gymnast since she was 4 years old, Catalina Ponor says she knew she had the ability to be great when she won the balance beam at a local event at the age of 9. She is from Constanta, Romania, bordering the Black Sea. Constanta is also the hometown of team mate Daniela Sofronie. Beautiful, Graceful, and Talented are words that come out when thinking of Catalina Ponor. Her specialties are the Beam and Floor, but in order to be a complete gymnast, she must improve on her Uneven Bars and then, maybe she would be a contender for the all around in all gymnastics events, including the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China. If she hadn't been stubborn and dragged her mother to enroll her in gymnastics, maybe no one, not even Catalina, would have known that she had potential to be as great as she is now.
