Paul Skenes was recently named Opening Day starter for the Pittsburgh Pirates, the first time that he has earned such an honor. While Skenes is just now getting ready to get his season going, Olivia Dunne has wrapped up her gymnastics career.

The LSU Tigers recently held senior day for the gymnastics team, but Dunne was unable to participate. On March 8, she shared an emotional message on Instagram about missing the big day.

“Tiger fans, you’ve been so good to me!💜 #seniornight #gymnastics #lsu #college #senior” Dunne captioned her post.

Through an Instagram Story, she shared:

"Hi friends! Unfortunately, I've been dealing with an avulsion fracture of my patella and will not be able to compete on senior night. It absolutely breaks my heart not to get the opportunity to compete in the PMAC one last time. Tiger fans, you've been so good to me! Thank you for the endless support, and as always, Geaux Tigers! - Liv."

Now that Dunne has wrapped up her collegiate career, she will have more time to support Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates.
