Olivia Dunne shares quirky picture and message on Haleigh Bryant's birthday as the two gear up for the 2025 NCAA season

As Haleigh Bryant turned 23, Olivia Dunne shared a playful picture and a heartfelt message for her LSU teammate. The two gymnasts are currently preparing for their appearance at the 2025 NCAA season.

While Dunne returned to the collegiate circuit to represent the LSU Tigers for the fifth year, Bryant entered her graduate year. The duo are now preparing to represent the Gold and Purple Pack after clinching their first-ever NCAA Gymnastics Championships last year.

The LSU Tigers collected 198.225 points to surpass California and Utah's women's gymnastics squads, who collected 197.850 and 197.800 points, respectively. Bryant displayed her exceptional skills throughout the 2024 season, having contributed to the squad's historic victory.

She became one of the most decorated gymnasts in program history, earning the 2024 NCAA all-around championship title with a score of 39.7125, the third-highest score in program history. Dunne became only the second gymnast in the program's history to claim this title, joining Susan Jackson. The recently turned 23-year-old became the fifth gymnast to win multiple NCAA individual Championships.

Sharing a picture from the 2024 team's historic winning night, where they were seen donning t-shirts with 'Champs' written on them, Dunne held Bryant in the highest regard.

"A 🐐's birthday @_haleighbryant," Dunne wrote adding a heat on fire emoji.
