Manage episode 430753603 series 1013662
LEXINGTON, Ky. (July 25, 2024) – This year marked Kentucky Gymnastics 50th season. Fans were able to watch some incredible talent during the historic season, including the incredibly decorated Raena Worley.
The 2024 SEC Floor Co-Champion graduated in May with a dual degree in Communications and Kinesiology. She is now an assistant coach for Kentucky Gymnastics.
Worley is the second-most decorated gymnast in the history of U-K’s program with a long list of accolades. Some highlights include earning five perfect tens this past season of competition — four on floor exercise and one coming on the uneven bars.
Worley also qualified as a national championship individual competitor this year and finished as runner-up on the floor exercise.
Now, the world turns its attention to the Paris Olympics and once again gymnastics will be a must-watch event.
On this episode of “Behind the Blue” we pick Worley’s brain about competing at such a high level and see who she’s eyeing in the competition.
