Kierstin Simmons '27 Recruiting Profile

My current goals are to spend my next 4 years at Heartland Gymnastics learning & growing within this sport as much as possible. Once my AAU/USAG career with Heartland is complete, I wish to continue gymnastics at the collegiate level. My Mom consistently pushes academics before athletics. My academic goal is to graduate high school as an honor student in the top 10 of my class. I've always pushed myself & given my best effort when it comes gymnastics. I've always been "coachable". Pairing that with my natural athletic abilities has always made learning bigger skills a strong suite for me. I work hard every practice/clinic/camp at perfecting current skills & learning new ones as well as doing the same when helping, encouraging & cheering on my teammates whenever I can. It's the dynamic of our team to work together & gel the way that we do, which is why I make a good candidate for collegiate gymnastics teams.
