LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne announced on Monday that she would be returning to the school for a fifth season.
It’s been a good offseason for LSU gymnastics after winning the national championship this past season, as 2024 all-around champion Haleigh Bryant announced back in April that she was also returning to the program
“After talking with my family, my coaches and my teammates, it was just a really good opportunity,” she said in a statement at the time. “I love gymnastics. It’s been a part of my life for so long, and I don’t think I was really ready for it to end.”
Dunne, 21, competed for LSU in the floor exercise and uneven bars in the 2023-24 campaign across nine meets.
Outside of gymnastics, Dunne has developed a massive following on social media and has NIL deals were an estimated $3.9 million, per Alex Weber of On3, currently ranking her second among college athletes. That includes deals with Passes, Vuori Clothing, American Eagle, Plant Fuel, Bartleby and more.
The LSU gymnast is famously dating Pittsburgh Pirates star pitcher Paul Skenes, who was named to the MLB All-Star Game this year after just 10 starts, with a 5-0 record to go along with a 2.12 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 78 strikeouts in 59.1 innings.
