Summary

Lauren is a recent graduate from UofI who completed her Hawkeye Gymnastics career as a 3x All American on floor, and a 2x Big Ten Floor Routine Champ. She found her way to Iowa City from down in Texas, where she began her gymnastics at a young age of 3. Lauren was a key component in a massive team record turnaround that resulted in an undefeated Big Ten regular season championship in 2021 and the squads first trip to the Sweet 16 this past 2022 season. She walks us through her career, what she took away from being a Hawkeye, and much more.
