For the first time in program history, each of the incoming Mountaineers qualified for the Junior Olympics National Championships in her senior season.
The excitement that surrounds WVU’s 2017 freshman class continues to grow. Just last week, sixth-year Mountaineer coach Jason Butts announced the addition of Erica Fontaine (Hill’s Gymnastics) to the class, joining Chloe Cluchey (Capital Gymnastics), Kassidy Cumber (Gymstrada Gymnastics School), Abby Kaufman (Prestige Gymnastics) and Julia Merwin (Frederick Gymnastics Club).
With the class complete, Butts, along with associate head coach Travis Doak, recently discussed their enthusiasm for the newcomers and his anticipation and expectations for the 2017 season.
