Welcome to our Big Ten Championships countdown series, a special edition of On The Floor with Liv and Cor where we interview one gymnast from each Big Ten gymnastics team ahead of the 2026 Big Ten Gymnastics Championships!

The three-event queen herself Ciena Allipio (and her cat Storm) join us to talk about how she went from being a beam specialist to a critical three-event contributor, this UCLA team’s chemistry, and answer the nearly impossible question of which of her teammates’ floor choreo she loves the most.
