Unsure if she is currently training for elite, since she won’t be in Tokyo. She is still competing in World Competitive Cheerleading and seems focused on that.

I don’t recall her committing to NCAA so maybe she is going NCAA cheerleading route instead of gymnastics ??

She’s got some bars posts, but things definitely seem more cheer oriented. I would think it would be hard to mix the two.

I think she announced she’s going to stick around for Paris 2024 if I remember correctly.

Didn’t she commit to UCLA at one point or have I lost it?

 

[rue_des_plantes]

She verbally committed in mid-2019 and was de-commited by the end of the year. It was a strange timeline, and it’s unclear what happened or if UCLA ever offered her a proper athletic scholarship vs. walk-on to begin with, but she’s not going anymore.

Based on her level of gymnastics, and her talent in cheerleading, she would likely benefit more from a cheerleading scholarship than a gymnastics one. Her gymnastics is not really high NCAA level as her execution is quite poor and have built in deductions. She might be able to get a scholarship to a lower tiered team but she would need to clean up her gymnastics a lot.
Cheerleading, she would likely be a top recruit for the power cheerleading schools.
