Baltimore Hokie • 02/03/26 05:06 PM ET
She is one tough woman!**
HOKIERIT • 02/03/26 04:29 PM ET
This is a highly respectful, entirely un-Lounge-like post and thread. **
RhinoVT • 02/03/26 02:14 PM ET
Finally...the voice of reason.**
HOKIERIT • 02/03/26 04:34 PM ET

Had a leg injury. Made her last vault and stuck the landing.
TomTurkey • 02/03/26 01:18 PM ET
I think you are right...Carrie Suggs sounds right. SHE was tough as well!**
HOKIERIT • 02/03/26 04:35 PM ET

Vtskier1 • 02/03/26 12:46 PM ET
Is she not basically taking a spot away from someone else to compete?
hoosnowahokie • 02/03/26 12:54 PM ET
That's kind of what competition is all about, isn't it?**
