SALEEM ON SHOWERS: “Mackenzie is one of those athletes every coach loves to work with — she’s resilient, hardworking, and brings such a thoughtful, intelligent approach to everything she does. She’s a true all-around gymnast who will help the Cardinals on all four events, but we know she’ll make an immediate impact on the uneven bars. Mac’s smile lights up any room, and her attention to detail and positive energy will fit perfectly with the culture of this program.”
