The first embrace for men's national all-around champ Danell Leyva came from coach Yin Alvarez. Leyva hugged him tight and lifted the overjoyed Alvarez off the floor.

Soon after Leyva received congratulatory hugs from Jonathan Horton, the 2010 and 2009 champ dethroned by Leyva on Friday night in the Visa national championships, as well as Paul Hamm, the 2004 Olympic all-around champion.

"Awesome," Leyva said of the title. "It's an amazing feeling. One of my biggest goals has just been accomplished."

Leyva closed the competition at the Xcel Energy Center superbly on the high bar with a high-flying routine featuring four crowd-pleasing release moves. He scored 16.25 to take that individual title.

Leyva's national all-around title is his first. He scored 183.8 points to 181.05 for Horton. John Orozco, coming back from an Achilles' injury, finished third with 180.5.
