LSU gymnastics coach Jay Clark seemed pretty pleased with the team’s improvements after getting off to a slow start.
“We needed that. We’ve been improving week after week and the one thing that was missing was the win. It was special to get a win like that,”
“They did such a great job. Our message all week was to just put pressure on them and see what happens, and we did that and performed at a high-level tonight. Now, we get ready to go again next week at Alabama.”
To celebrate the win, Dunne, who has been injured this season, posted a TikTok that with her teammates that instantly went viral.
@livvy a great day to be a tiger💯 #foryou #gymnastics #lsu
In the comments section, one troll tried to body shame Dunne by calling her “cannonless” which led to her firing back.
“I’m an athlete. I’m not perfect but I’m happy with how I look. I am blessed enough to have a healthy body that’s capable of doing amazing things:),”
