The 22-year-old gymnast took to her Instagram story to reveal that she was suffering from a fracture. She wrote:
"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."
Dunne has contributed to several honors for the LSU Tigers in her five-year-old career as a collegiate gymnast. She joined the Louisiana State University in 2021. She had contributed to the NCAA Championship victory for the LSU Tigers' team last year.
