Before the Storm: Jennifer Pinches

By: UCLA Athletics

Get to know the UCLA Gymnastics team through a series of features that will run every Tuesday leading up to the 2015 season opener on Jan. 12. British Olympian and "Nerdfighter" Jennifer Pinches is the focus of the latest episode.

After retiring from gymnastics following the 2012 Olympics and embracing new adventures, Pinches made an unexpected return to gymnastics when offered the opportunity to compete and study at UCLA. Pinches talks about her comeback, embracing the life of an athlete rather than just a gymnast, and how much she enjoys the team aspect of collegiate gymnastics.
