Building the Bobcats: Texas State’s First Commits

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After announcing the inaugural gymnastics team earlier this summer, the Texas State coaching staff went straight to work and is already making a statement in the recruiting scene. The Bobcats recently hosted their first recruiting weekend, which resulted in five commitments, a huge win as they continue to build the program's inaugural roster.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["4269"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ac53398237c7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='4269' first='Jordyn' last='Mock'] was the first gymnast to commit to Texas State and will stay in her home state to compete for the inaugural team. Her stand out events are vault and beam, where she brings a combination of difficulty and variety. On vault, she competes a front handspring front pike and is training a front pike half. On beam she has unique skills including a front toss back tuck series, and is training an upgraded front pike toss and back handspring 1 ½ dismount. Mock is coming off of two back to back seasons of qualifying to Level 10 Regionals and spent the off season upgrading her routines while continuing to focus on execution. Mock will be one to watch when Texas State kicks off their first season in 2028.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["4282"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ac533982382b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='4282' first='Ryann' last='Stewart'] is another Texas gymnast staying home and taking her talents to Texas State. Stewart is a strong all around gymnast and a two-time Level 10 Nationals qualifier. She also trained major upgrades in the off season, and has added a Yurchenko 1 ½ on vault, and a double layout on floor. Over on bars she has been training a beautiful Tkatchev to pak combination and a new double layout dismount. With her consistency and new upgrades, Stewart has the ability to make an immediate impact in any Texas State lineup and will be exciting to watch throughout her college career. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["4027"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ac533982387c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Paisley Davis brings power, precision and poise to the Texas State roster. Before committing to Texas State, Davis was previously committed to Clemson and is coming off a season that included qualifying to Level 10 Nationals. She is the full package and brings something to every event, from her powerful yurchenko 1 ½ and multiple E level tumbling passes to her strong execution and form on bars and beam. Her long lines on bars are second to none and also something to lookout for when watching her on that event. Davis should be on everyone's radar during her final Level 10 season and will be a great asset to the Texas State team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["4117"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ac53398238c3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='4117' first='Jayde' last='Cisneros'] is another Texas gymnast staying in her home state for the next chapter of her career. Cisneros is a powerful gymnast who shows impressive amplitude on vault and floor. She has been training an upgraded yurchenko 1 ½ which would add another 10.0 start value vault to this early Texas State roster. She has also been working on multiple upgrades across the other events and is setting herself up well to transition into competing at the next level. Cisneros is an incredible addition to the inaugural team and has the potential to make an impact right away as a Bobcat. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["4024"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ac5339823907"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">After visiting Penn, Brown, and Pittsburgh Gianna Micco is taking her talents to the inaugural Texas State gymnastics program. Micco is coming off a standout season where she won bars at Level 10 Nationals with a beautiful routine that included a floaty ray and a dynamic double layout dismount. She has continued to work upgrades in the off season, including a full in E pass on floor and a side aerial to arabesque on beam. She is also training a round off double twist dismount, giving her even more difficulty on that event. Micco brings high level gymnastics and the ability to compete well under pressure to the Texas State roster and will be one to watch when the Bobcats take the floor.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
