She's so fantastic at UCLA. She smiles and dances and is my favorite gymnast to watch, and she still occasionally does the layout full on beam (when Val lets her throw it, haha). She just got two 10's in a row on beam earlier in the season. It's great to see her having so much fun when she was so serious as an elite.

It makes me sad knowing she wasn’t enjoying her time here. She looks exhausted and so young. So sad to hear her full story of events

[paige]

Yes she should’ve been an Olympic medalist but look how depressed she looks in this it wouldnt be any different but she got a break and she is happier now so look on the bright side

2019?

And its weird seeing her like this, not cause she is ALOT younger its because she isn't wearing her beautiful smile that makes everyone else smile:)

she is the olympic champion of my heart

[Andrew-pffj]

I'll never understand how she was capable of doing a full-twisting layout in combination SO CONSISTENTLY. Such an incredible gymnast, glad to see her happy and killing the collegiate game nowadays <3

[stefepedia]

She looks so happy at UCLA and I'm so glad she's finally truly happy with where she is :)

Truly one of the best beam routines of all time.

That was the most difficult beam routine I've ever seen and my absolute favorite. They sacrifice everything & the amount of pressure they have.... She deserved a Gold for that. A layout on a beam plus, a standing half-twist back flip into another flip. I've never seen any gymnast able to do that

[jenniebrady]

watching her do this routine makes me sad. she was so good and even at the end when she did her dismount she barely smiled. you can tell how much happier she is at ucla.

Fate was so unkind to Katelyn. She should've been a World and Olympic beam gold medallist. I just love how she worked so high up on her toes! That's going to be a big deal in next year's COP.

[irenegunn]

Shes one of my favorite gymnasts very difficult routine!! You GO GIRL!! We Love you!!

[raceytray]

I know she's a happy gymnast now, competing NCAA, but it still kinda sucks that we didn't get more of this beautiful and insanely difficult gymnastics.

[laurencurran]

Thank you Ms. Val for bringing out the joy in her!!

[jordanbaines]

I think what gets me about Katelyn is that she such a contender for the Olympics but she was unhappy with her being there and competing. It just goes to show you that just because you are great at something, does not mean it is good for you to do. She did not waste her potential or miss out on anything. She took care of herself which is all anyone could and should ask for.

Unquestionably one of the best beam workers

[averia]

She’s my favorite and the best gymnast I’ve seen since Nadia Comaneci

[dobcsek]

Shame about the series of injuries. She would have been Olympic champion for sure. If only the injuries had happened after at least the World Championships in 2013. She would have deserved at least one World Champ experience. Such a sad career story.

I keep watching this beam exercise and it is definitely a true masterpiece, I love it !

[timothychiles]

This was the highest beam score of the 2009 to 2012 quad, I believe! Outrageous!
