More than 175 current and former gymnasts and parents, including Olympic medalists and UCLA stars, are expressing their support for former UCLA coach Chris Waller in a statement provided to The Times.

My own experiences with Chris Waller were all good. I found him to be an empathetic and excellent technical coach.
