    Joscelyn Roberson Enters Her GymDawg Era

    This week, we are so excited to be joined by a very special guest for our 300th episode: Joscelyn Roberson, who has been a longtime favorite of ours. Joscelyn has already accomplished so much in her career, including being an alternate for the 2024 Olympic team in Paris, a team world champion in 2023, and an individual vault world bronze medalist in 2025. After years of elite gymnastics, Joscelyn took this summer off to give her body and mind some much-needed time to rest and reset. She went through a lot over the past year, but now she’s feeling eager to get back out there. In this episode, we talk about everything from what she’s learned over the past year to her excitement about getting back into the gym. We also dive into her decision to transfer to Georgia and what life looks like as she begins her junior year.

    Lacie Saltzmann: A Freshman Season to Remember

    This week, we are so excited to be joined by Lacie Saltzmann, who is a rising sophomore at the University of Minnesota. Lacie had an incredible freshman season, where she was a mainstay in the Gophers’ bars and floor lineups, posting career highs of 9.9625 and 9.925, respectively. She, of course, helped her team advance out of the toughest regional to move on to the NCAA Championships and then helped the Gophers make history by advancing to the Final Four for the first time ever. Individually, Lacie ended the season with First Team All-America honors on bars and is hungry to do even more in her sophomore season. Lacie joins us to look back on last season and talk about how she ended up at Minnesota, her passion for baking, how she overcame her fear of twisting, and so much more.

    Recruit Reflections - Rachael Tracy Gardner (CGA Head Coach)

    This is Episode 7 of the Recruit Reflection series, brought to you by Full Out Collegiate Recruiting, and this week, for the first time in the history of this series, we are joined by a club coach! We are so grateful to be joined by Rachael Tracy Gardner, the head coach at Cincinnati Gymnastics Academy, where she coaches Levels 8 through Elite. She joins us to talk about all things recruiting from the perspective of a club coach, covering everything from athletes receiving recruiting mail to navigating the natural feelings of jealousy among teammates, how she handles college coaches coming into the gym to watch practice, whether she lets her personal opinions be known to her athletes, and how she got into coaching and grew up in the sport as the daughter of the very well-known coach Mary Lee Tracy.
