"Being a member of the GW Gymnastics team is a rewarding and character building experience. I have a great satisfaction in knowing that as a member of this team, I have the opportunity to learn more about myself, and the people around me. Gymnastics teaches you to be a confident, strong-minded, determined individual, and most importantly, the value of continued support from your team. The experiences I face as a student-athlete will not only make for a memorable four years at GW, but also mold me into a person that will be successful in the future."
