LSU Gymnastics may be on the verge of landing one of the top gymnasts in the country.

Madison Ulrich posted pictures on her Instagram from her visit to Baton Rouge. Although she used the hashtag #notcommitted, she seems like a perfect fit for LSU.

Madison said in the comments, “Baton Rouge, how we feelin?[hearts emojis]”

Her accomplishments as a student-athlete with the University of Denver Pioneers are nothing short of outstanding. She has recently recorded career highs on Vault (9.925), Beam (9.900), Floor (9.95), and All-Around (39.575) during the NCAA Second Round and Regionals last month.

The former 5-star recruit from South Carolina has been a leader on Denver from the moment she arrived two years ago. In addition to being named the Big 12 Newcomer of the year in 2024, she followed it up by individually qualifying for the NCAA National Championships.

It’s clear that LSU is pulling out all the stops for this gymnast. The team’s existing squad members had a lot to say about Ulrich’s visit in the comments.

Haleigh Bryant posted, “These are your colors. Yes, yes, yes!” Lexi Zeiss said, “So fun having you!!!” Freshman Kaliya Lincoln posted, “You look so good in purple and gold”. Kylie Coen posted, “I like this!” Kailin Chio posted, “Yes, ma’am!” And Junior Ashley Cowan posted, “We feelin’ good!”

It's still very much uncertain where Ulrich will be competing next season, but the anticipation is clear. Madison's choices could significantly influence who the frontrunners will be for the 2026 gymnastics season.
