Live coverage of the men's event resumes this Saturday, at 3:30 p.m. on Olympic Channel, continuing at 4:30 p.m. on NBC. On Sunday, coverage culminates with live NBC primetime coverage of the women's competition at 8 p.m.

After winning the U.S. Classic last month in her first competition since the Rio Games, Biles aims for a record fifth women's U.S. all-around title. Reigning world all-around champion Morgan Hurd, defending U.S. all-around champion Ragan Smith, and Riley McCusker, who was second at the U.S. Classic and third in the all-around at last year's nationals, are all expected to compete. Four-time U.S. all-around champion Sam Mikulak and 2017 U.S. all-around champion Yul Moldauer are expected to highlight the men's field.
Terry Gannon calls the action in Boston, joined by two-time Olympic medalist Tim Daggett, 2008 Olympic all-around champion Nastia Liukin and reporter Andrea Joyce.
