Acrobatics and tumbling base Kate Puentes is one of the most experienced athletes at Baylor. The senior has competed in every acrobatics and tumbling event since joining the six-time defending national champions in 2019. However, Puentes said the squad’s success is a result of teammates motivating one another to perform at their fullest potential.

“It’s been such a journey to be a part of a team that is so talented and continues to push each other daily because we’re just trying to beat each other at this point,” Puentes said.
