Texas Talent. National Ambition.

Texas State is making history as the first institution in the state of Texas to launch an NCAA Division I Women’s Gymnastics program. As one of the fastest-growing collegiate sports in the country, women’s gymnastics presents a unique opportunity to build a nationally competitive program while creating unforgettable experiences for student-athletes, fans, and the greater Bobcat community!

Together, we have the opportunity to build something truly historic for Texas State, the state of Texas, and the future of collegiate gymnastics.
