During the Summer of 2015, Analisa participated in TOPs Testing, qualified to National Testing, and made the TOPs National B Team. As a level 8 in 2016, Analisa began training and competing with United Gymnastics Academy. At her first level 8 meet, Analisa won the all around and placed second on vault. At the 2016 Level 8 State Meet, Analisa placed sixth all around with a 37.700 and qualified to regionals. At the Region 3 Championships, Analisa won the vault title with a 9.450 and tied for sixth all around with a 37.750. Over the Summer of 2016, Analisa prepared for both level 9 and Hopes which she would aim to qualify for during the 2017 season.
Analisa started her 2017 level 9 season at the Texas Shootout meet where she won the vault, floor, and all around titles. Throughout the season, Analisa continued to improve and had her best showing at the Texas Level 9 State Meet where she placed fifth on vault and fifth on floor. At regionals, Analisa had an uncharacteristic bar routine which kept her from qualifying to Westerns. Fortunately, Analisa’s season wasn’t over. After her Region 3 Championships, Analisa began preparing for the Parkettes National Elite Qualifier where she would need a 32.00 compulsory score and a 45.00 optional score to qualify. Analisa’s first day of competition was the compulsory qualifier where she scored a 33.050 and achieved her Hopes 10-11 compulsory score. On the second day, Analisa achieved her Hopes 10-11 optional score with a 45.150 as well as a first place finish on vault. These two qualifying scores qualified Analisa to the Hopes Classic on July 7 at the National Team Training Center in Huntsville, TX. In order for Analisa to qualify to the Hopes Championships from the Hopes Classic, she would need to score a 45.00 in the all around and place in the top 18. Analisa did just that scoring a 45.500 and placing 14th. Analisa also took home the silver on vault. The Hopes Championships took place on July 28, 2017 in Hoffman Estates, Chicago. Analisa had the best Hopes meet of her season so far finishing fourth on vault, sixth on floor, and ninth all around with a 46.400.Currently, Analisa trains 32 hours per week under coaches Amanda and Paul Rocha.
