“I am really excited to make the addition of these two gymnasts official,” said Butts. “They are great fits for the Mountaineer gymnastics family. Kassidy and Julia have fantastic personalities, and they are natural additions to the gym and to the team. I know this class will continue to evolve throughout the year, but I’m very happy to welcome Kassidy and Julia today.”
Cumber, a native of Virginia Beach, Virginia, is a four-year level 10 gymnast out of Gymstrada Gymnastics School. A 2015 Junior Olympic National Invitational qualifier at the Senior A level, Cumber placed second overall with a career-high 37.
