Olivia Dunne and the LSU Tigers gymnastics team won their first NCAA national title last year. Reflecting on their recent SEC championship victory and the season so far, Dunne said (starting at 2:46):

“I feel like we're just so ready and the season has been such a gift and to watch everyone's Talent unfold the way it has been has been so amazing to watch… I think we always had it in us. It just all came together at the perfect time and we're peaking at the right time in the season and it's just been such a blessing.”

The 22-year-old gymnast, in her final year of NCAA eligibility, also shared her thoughts on being sidelined due to injury, saying:

“I wish I could be out there competing. I have a fractured kneecap right now so I'm on the sidelines cheering but it's just been such an amazing time this past year and this team is so talented it's so amazing.”

The No. 2 LSU Tigers won the SEC title with a final score of 198.200, the highest in program history. The No. 1 Oklahoma Sooners followed closely with a 197.925, making it a tightly contested championship.
