Washington commit Evyn Hillstrom is bringing proven all-around ability and valuable championship experience to the Huskies’ future roster. Hillstrom showcased her consistency and competitive composure on one of the biggest stages of the season, recording a season-high all-around score of 37.800 at Nationals. Delivering that kind of performance at a national championship speaks to her ability to rise to the occasion and compete across all four events. Her well-rounded skill set and experience in high-level competition make her an exciting addition to Washington’s program. As she prepares for the next chapter in Seattle, Hillstrom will look to carry her all-around strength and competitive confidence to the collegiate stage.

The upgrades Evyn Hillstrom has been training this summer make her a name coaches should be paying close attention to. Her Yurchenko 1.5 is a major addition to her vault arsenal, bringing the kind of difficulty and power that could make her a valuable piece of any lineup. We’re especially excited to see if she brings the upgrade to competition this season. Bars is another event where Evyn has plenty to offer. She combines power with a steady, controlled rhythm, highlighted by a full pirouette–Gienger combination and a double layout dismount that give the routine both difficulty and excitement. On floor, her tumbling brings that same explosive quality, with a double tuck that she makes look remarkably easy. With upgrades across multiple events and the power to make difficult skills look comfortable, Evyn is putting herself in position to become a serious contributor and a gymnast coaches will want to keep on their radar.

Evyn Hillstrom enters her junior season coming off an impressive sophomore campaign, highlighted by a 37.8 season-high at Nationals. She brings an exciting combination of quick twisting, dynamic difficulty, and standout showmanship, making her routines especially engaging to watch. Hillstrom is adding even more difficulty this season, including a Yurchenko 1.5 on vault and a blind full pirouette-Gienger connection on bars. Beam is another area of growth, with a back handspring-layout-layout, pike front toss, switch side and round off-double full dismount in the works. On floor, she is pushing her tumbling with a front double full-front tuck and front full-front full-1.5-front full combination. With her speed through twisting skills and ability to bring energy to every routine, Hillstrom has the potential for an exciting junior season.
