In the 2022-23 season, Fisk University became the first HBCU school to compete against NCAA and NAIA programs at women's gymnastics competitions. All year, the ladies of Fisk challenged the "bluebloods of ladies gymnastics" and scored high in programs. 

It's quite an accomplishment for Morgan Price and his teammates to be invited to the national championships. Expect massive improvement and eventual wins from the Fiskites in the gymnasiums for 2023-24.
