(GYM) ***CLOSED***Gymnastics 2023 - 2024***CLOSED

Nice that they have at least one coach that is classy

 

An interesting sidebar in the competition. Sahvanna Schoenherr, the previous Gator gymnast had a fall on the beam which put LSU in the precarious position of having to hit their final four routines. They did it and won the title. Probably a sweet and sour moment for Sahvana, as she was shown crying after the match was won.

 

Very proud of these ladies, so many freshmen on the squad. They really overachieved when you think of what they were able to accomplish!

 

Who do we expect to add to the squad after the Olympics?

 

Sahvanna holding trophy with a smile on her face. Good for her!

 

Curious what was Leanne's score on Floor X? Proud of our Gym Gators. They had a fantastic season, just came up a little short today. Our future is bright! It's Great to be a Florida Gator!

 

Utah started that final rotation with a slight lead over LSU, but quickly had 2 falls on the vault. LSU kept their cool after their beam fall by former Gator Savannah Schoenherr and finished very strong. Congrats to them. Very consistent team the entire year.
Looking at our scores, Draser was once again very consistent in her 3 events. Nguyen had a bad beam, Pilgrim was OK, but not up to her usual standards especially on the vault. She usually gets 1 or 2 scores over 9, but not today. Danie Ferris was solid in her 2 events, Wong was subpar on the vault and then came off the beam. Lazzari had a bad vault and Blakeney had a great beam and then OK on her other 2.
Looking forward to next season, as we'll have a few changes in the make-up of the team and will be back in the hunt again.

Thanks.
Nice comeback from a poor beam routine.

Good luck to all our Gators in the Olympic team competition! Would absolutely love to see Trinity make it to Paris!

 

Gators who were honored on senior night were Victoria Nguyen, Chloi Clark, Payton Richards, Ellie Lazzari and Michala Magee.
Unless any of them transfer out, our 6 freshmen who will be sophomores next year and were the #1 ranked recruiting class, consist of: Anya Pilgrim, Skylar Draser, Danie Ferris, Gabbie Disidore, Kaylee Bluffstone & Alyssa Arana.
Signed for the 2025 class and due to enroll probably this summer are:
5-star Lily Bruce, 4-star Taylor Clark, 3-star Alyssa Orgen and 5-star Skye Blakely, who signed in November 2022, who has all kinds of titles and accolades with Team USA.
In addition we should get Riley McCusker and Kayla DiCello back, plus have Sloane Blakely, Lori Brubach, Bri Edwards, Morgan Hurd and Leann Wong on the roster with eligibility remaining.
It will be interesting to see if any of these ladies transfers out and/or if Coach Rowland tries to add any competitors from the transfer portal. Plenty of talent there to be in the Top 5 again next year.

 

I love our team and they overachieved. They are missing that fierce alpha like Sloan or Hunter or McMurty or Thomas who will stick cold in pressure moments. LSU deserved it. Even if we stick vaults and Wong doesn’t fall we still would not have won. Can’t say enough about Draser. What a rock.

 

I thought I read recently that Ellie was going to return. Maybe I'm losing it

 

LSU breaks through, takes first gymnastics title

 

Congrats ladies. Go Gators!
