Canadian Jessica Savona signed with Louisiana State University starting September. She’ll be as big a star for the Tigers as one of my former gymnasts, Jennifer Woods.
Savona was recruited by famed Head Coach, D-D Breaux:
… already the most-tenured coach in LSU sports history, will complete her 35th season as the Tigers’ coach at the NCAA Gymnastics Championships beginning Friday in Duluth, Ga.
Yet Breaux, the mother of two and grandmother of two, has no plans of slowing down.“I still enjoy what I’m doing,” Breaux said. “I still come to work every day with an intensity and burning desire to make things better, and continue to push my team for excellence. …
“The most important part of that drive is I still enjoy the recruiting process,” she said. “When a coach stops enjoying it and no longer participates in the recruiting process, things go downhill.” …
NCAA College recruiters will be warmly welcomed in Regina, at the 2012 Canadian Championships. We’ve never had so many strong female gymnasts.
