What is the story about?
LSU gymnastics announced on Tuesday that recent graduate Emily Innes will join the team as a student coach for the 2027 season. Emily was LSU’s lead performer on floor and an occasional performer on beam during her senior season in 2026 after spending her first three seasons at Washington.
Immediately following the team’s runner-up performance in 2026, head coach Jay Clark
made it clear he wanted those who would be leaving the team to remain as close as possible and remain engaged. Emily remaining and learning under LSU’s experienced staff is a good sign of things to come.
