All of the best senior gymnasts in the nation belong to the Minnesota Golden Gophers. A few days after Gopher men’s gymnast Shane Wiskus was named the Nissen-Emery Award as the best senior gymnast in men’s collegiate gymnastics, on Wednesday Gopher senior Lexy Ramler was awarded the AAI Award as the best senior collegiate gymnast in women’s gymnastics!
The award is voted on by NCAA women’s gymnastics head coaches and is considered one of the highest honors given in the sport of women’s gymnastics. Ramler becomes the second Gopher to ever win the award after Lindsay Mable who won it in 2016.
