Georgia gymnast Grace Taylor

The biggest clash in College gymnastics this weekend is Georgia vs Florida. The Gators are hungry.

Reigning NCAA beam champion Grace Taylor from Georgia is ranked on beam this season.

At any College meet she’s one of the most eye-catching, appealing competitors.

A fan favourite.

There’s a terrific article on Grace that gives background into her upbringing in a fervently Christian family. Fascinating.

So when the Gators come to town Saturday, is there any chance Taylor will take it easy on them, show a little Christian compassion?

Not a chance.

“Florida beat us at SECs my freshman year. And I don’t appreciate them as a school because of that,” she said. “I don’t like to think of myself as someone that holds grudges, but I don’t particularly like the feeling of getting beat by Florida. And within my power I definitely don’t want to lose to them.”
