Talladega College announces the difficult decision to discontinue its gymnastics program after just one year due to limited resources 😔 "While the decision to discontinue the gymnastics program was undoubtedly difficult, we remain incredibly proud of our gymnasts, coaches, and their remarkable achievements. Their dedication and resilience have set a high standard, and their legacy will continue to inspire," said Interim President Dr. Walter M. Kimbrough 🗣 Talladega College made history by becoming the second HBCU to offer gymnastics, following Fisk University. Freshman Kyrstin Johnson, who won the USGA national title in vault, shared her experience: "I feel like now that I’m at Talladega, I can actually be free to be myself." 🤸🏾♂️❤️ Vice President and Athletic Director Loretta Martin expressed her admiration: "Our gymnasts' and coaches' dedication, skill, and spirit have been nothing short of inspiring. While the decision to discontinue the program was incredibly tough, it’s clear that the strides we’ve made will ultimately strengthen Talladega College as a whole." ✍🏾 The gymnastics program will officially close on July 31, but the legacy of these athletes will live on. The team has launched a crowdfunding campaign to save the program, already reaching nearly $12,000 of its $500,000 goal. Let’s support them in their efforts! 💪🏾 #HBCUBUZZ #TalladegaCollege
