The most anticipated series is back! Since so many of the class of 2023’s elite gymnasts have deferred enrollment until after the Olympics, we’re switching things up this year by combining level 10s and elites into the same articles. We’ll also be a little more subjective with our featured level 10 gymnasts rather than only using data to determine who’s included. This week we’re looking at the freshmen most expected to make an impact on all four events.
The Level 10s
Madison Ulrich, Denver
Who else could we start with besides Ulrich, the only level 10 to make the cut on all four of our class of 2023 Most Anticipated lists? After missing the entire 2022 season, Ulrich came back with a vengeance and scored over 39.000 on four occasions this year. Denver couldn’t ask for a better successor to Lynnzee Brown.
Delaynee Rodriguez, Kentucky
The Wildcats are coming off of a breakout 2023 season, and—with Rodriguez to complement star all-arounder Raena Worley—show no signs of losing momentum in 2024. Her contributions will be especially welcome on beam and floor: She’s an incredibly engaging performer with the big skills and results to back up all that charisma.
