LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne sustained an avulsion fracture in her kneecap on March 6 and aims to make a comeback to the sport. Dunne expressed optimism about potentially competing in the NCAA women's gymnastics championships, indicating she may focus on bars routine due to limitations in tumbling and beam exercises.

Despite the setback, Dunne remains determined to recover and return to competition. Her avulsion fracture, a rare overuse injury, requires time to heal. The injury forced her to miss the final home meet for LSU, but she is progressively improving and remains hopeful about her gymnastics future as she continues rehabilitation.
