LSU Tigers' gymnastics head coach, Jay Clerk recently shared an update about Olivia Dunne's health condition. Dunne last competed during the Tigers' meet against Arkansas when she posted a score of 9.700 in the floor exercises apparatus as her side lost the meet 196.600-196.875.

In an interview after the Oklahoma Sooners meet, Clerk shared that Dunne's knee is not fully recovered yet due to which she had to be rested for the meet. He said (via LSU Sports, 27:30 onwards):

"Liv's knee is still an issue, it's not anything like a stress fracture or anything, there's a stress reaction kind of situation on her kneecap, it's just painful and so the only remedy for that is rest. So, we have got to kind of ride it out and see where that goes."

The LSU Tigers are scheduled to face Kentucky next in an away counter at Memorial Coliseum, Lexington on Friday (Feb. 21).
