College Gymnastics Lists 1 of 4 (The Freshman)

Here is the first entry on this blog dedicated to college gymnasts; we begin with a list of 10 talented freshman. Alas, finding images of freshman gymnasts on the web proved to be daunting, so we offer some of their school mascots instead:


1) Kelly Burak, Pitt (Ron the Panther, pictured top)

2) Sasha Sander, Missouri (Truman the Tiger, pictured center)

3) Amanda Jetter, Alabama (Big Al, pictured bottom)

4) Meggie Lim, Auburn
