Future Husker and reigning national vault champion Payton McClain brings power, polish, high-level difficulty, and exceptional landing execution to her gymnastics. On vault, McClain has previously competed a Tsukahara tuck 1.5, earning scores as high as a 10.0 in past seasons, and is now training a stellar Tsukahara layout double full. She already impresses on bars, delivering a college-ready routine featuring a bail to handstand and a Van Leeuwen, both showcasing beautiful form, followed by a blind full into a big double back dismount. On floor, McClain has previously competed an impressive round-off layout 2.5 and front double full and continues to push her difficulty as she trains a front full to Rudi and a Rudi to layout step-out. With her explosive power, polished execution, and commitment to increasing her difficulty, McClain is an exciting addition to Nebraska’s lineup. Husker fans have plenty to look forward to as she prepares to bring her skills to the collegiate stage!
