Sharon Shapiro became the first women’s gymnastics Hall of Fame inductee in 1999. Shapiro enjoyed an illustrious and historic athletic career for the Bruins. She remains the first and only gymnast ever to capture national titles on all four events and the all-around in the same year, a feat she accomplished at the 1980 AIAW National Championships her freshman season. In 1981, Shapiro won the prestigious Broderick Award, given to the country’s top female gymnast. As a sophomore that season, she defended her all-around title and also won the individual vault crown. The following year, she earned All-America honors in the all-around, vault and balance beam. Shapiro has remained a key alumna, supporter, and ambassador for UCLA and her sport since her graduation.
