McClure is also a resident athlete for the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Early years

McClure was born in Yakima, Washington, the son of Les and Judy McClure.[1] He started gymnastics at the age of nine under the influence of his father Les, who pushed him to train and perform ten pushups from a handstand position against the wall. When his family later resided in Mill Creek, Washington, he spent two years at Henry M. Jackson High School and finished up early at Chrysalis School in Woodinville. In 1999, McClure moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado to work and train as a full-time resident athlete at the U.S. Olympic Training Center, under head coach Vitaly Marinich.[3]

Career

McClure made his official worldwide debut at the 2001 Goodwill Games in Brisbane, Australia, where he received an average score of 9.362 to bring home the bronze medal in the pommel horse, finishing behind China's Huang Xu and Romania's Marius Urzică.[4] On that same year, he added a silver to his annual hardware in the men's team all-around competition (a total of 166.845) at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Ghent, Belgium.[5]

At the 2003 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Anaheim, California, McClure pulled off a highest preliminary score in the horizontal bar to give U.S. a second straight silver in the men's team all-around competition. His team received a composite score of 171.121, trailing China by nearly eight-tenths of a point (0.8).[6]
