Gymnast of the Week: Lola Sepulveda (UB)

The Gymnastics East Conference has named Lola Sepulveda of the University of Bridgeport the Gymnast of the Week following an impressive performance at the recent quad meet against Brown, Southern Connecticut, and Springfield. Sepulveda delivered standout performances across three events, earning first-place finishes on vault and floor, while also making strides toward returning to all-around competition. Sepulveda tied her career-high on vault with a stuck Yurchenko layout full, posting a 9.825 to take the event title. She also debuted a new floor routine, capturing first place with another 9.825.


Specialist of the Week: Lauren Luu (Yale)

The Gymnastics East Conference has named Lauren Luu of Yale University the Specialist of the Week following an outstanding performance on the uneven bars at the recent meet at Penn. Luu’s 9.925 bar score not only earned her the event title but also marked the second-highest bar score in Yale gymnastics history. This exceptional performance comes in Luu's second collegiate meet. Despite some challenges last season, Luu has made a remarkable return to competition and has quickly established herself as a key member of Yale’s bar lineup. Her performance at Penn was particularly impressive as she rebounded from a fall the previous weekend, demonstrating both resilience and skill under pressure.


Newcomer of the Week: Mimi Fletcher (Penn)

The Gymnastics East Conference has honored Penn freshman Mimi Fletcher as Newcomer of the Week following an exceptional performance on the balance beam at the recent meet against Towson, Yale, and Ursinus. With a career-best score of 9.875, Fletcher secured a second-place finish in the event, marking the fourth-highest balance beam score in program history. Fletcher is proving to be a consistent performer in the Quaker’s beam lineup scoring above a 9.8 the last two meets in a row.
