EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — Kyla Ross won the gold medal on the balance beam, took silver on the uneven bars and bronze on the floor exercise Sunday night in the individual event finals of the Pacific Rim gymnastics championships.

The U.S. team won six golds, including two by Chris Brooks of Houston.

The men’s all-around winner on Saturday added individual golds on the rings and the horizontal bar on Sunday.

The 15-year-old Ross, of Alisa Viejo, Calif., competing in her first event as a member of the U.S. senior team, finished with a 15.375 total on the beam. That overcame the 15.3 of Canada’s Christine Lee.
