Ohio State 5th Year Super Senior Claire Gagliardi joined us for our Alumni Conversation to talk all things floor. We talk Region 5 days including her tumbling on cue (just need to listen), and her story on making Level 10 Nationals for the first time. Claire competed a new vault at the beginning of last season but has a new one in store for 2023 and of course her "Air Claire" might make a comeback. Kim and her discuss all the things when you it comes to her many great floor routines and the claire back spin of course. Listen in as we talk all about her gymnastics with some Hot Wings and Waffles mixed in. 

Region 5 Alum and soon to be Michigan State Sophomore Skyla Schulte joined us to talk about her freshman season from doing bars with long nails, drag queen inspired floor excellence to having deja vu on beam at the NCAA Championships one year after nailing beam at JO Nationals. Skyla talks about how her first college floor routine came together, how a change on bars impacted her confidence and Pickles well just have to listen in for that. 

Sooners stole the show,13 alums competed and 1 killed it in vault in warm-ups, the cables at bars were faulty and so were the judges, landings on vault were hard to come by but not for Rucker. Bars and Beam All Americans for Region 5 Alums. Do you focus recruiting on elites or level 10s and Lights Out needs to be OUT for ever.

After a weekend of 4 square or 8 square or even 12 square, we have our 2022 NCAA qualifiers. It was a weekend of big performances, 10’s for what every Trinity touched, a very well known foot (thanks to twitter and ESPN screen shots- crazy exciting ending in Raleigh, Tale of two Bryants, Schulte soars in Seattle and lots of alum stand out moments.

Championships Crazy that was this past weekend in the NCAA and we have lots of highlights for you. Another 10 on vault for an alum, If you won session 1 you were the 3rd or 4th best team in the conference, Region 5 Alums took home many conference awards, Karas massively excited joins us on the podcast and Maryland is now my favorite team.

The final week of NCAA Regular season has come and gone and everyone is prepping for Championship weekend. Before we jump into the posted season we have  a HUGE 10 on vault to talk about, a 10 on floor for an alum, The Ramler is a thing, Flashes floor, Kim’s 2nd ESPN Status and dance thrus in competition.

It was a week filled with 9.9’s, 198’s+++++ and some debuts (yes even in the final weeks of the season), some senior nights and even a record or two. We did have the WIAC conference championship take place this past week with a few alums making a splash. Teams are gearing up for the post season and scores are through the roof- What is a good score in 2022? Olivia has some thoughts on that but for our Alums the 9.9’s were abundant with the notebook filled

Two alums rise to career perfect 10's, Suni Nabs it on bars, and Judge Jail. We give an update on where our Region 5 Alums rank in the NQS rankings, we kickover the art of sticking, a senior night for one alum, first time 9.9 club members and we recap the Insider Classic, Nastia and Winter Cup that and more.

It’s week 7 of the NCAA season but it was more like the BIG 5 and we will break down the highlights from BIG Ten’’s part 1 at Elevate the Stage, Tough to watch all the Beauty when you have beasts there at NIU, I was there more on that, we had a 10 this week but not from an alum but a Level 10, The DOGS at MSU gotta EAT and CHIPS are WANT WORK AND WIN (well close this weekend). A cool throwback to 1988 and HELLO check this vault out from SUNI.

The college debut the Gymternet has been waiting a long time for, Gabby Perea in the competitive line-up. A new gymnastics program to make its first college salutes in 2023, the beauty and toe point of Illinois, stars in the making, triple full, double layouts , program highs and the GREEN and WHITE....
