NORMAL, Ill. – Illinois State gymnastics head coach Bob Conkling has announced the hiring of Jessica Yamzon as the program's new assistant coach on Monday.
"I am excited to welcome Jessica Yamzon into the Redbird Gymnastics family," Conkling stated. "Being a former college SEC gymnast, along with competing all four events, she brings in not only knowledge, but also a strong understanding of what our athletes go through daily. I'm looking forward to everything that Jessica will bring to our gymnastics program."
Yamzon comes to Illinois State with familiarity of competing in the Midwest Independent Conference, as she most recently served as a volunteer assistant coach of the Lindenwood gymnastics team in 2022.
