.UtahGymnastics' Jaedyn Rucker is aiming to become the first Ute to win back-to-back vault titles since 1982-83.
This year Rucker is chasing history, aiming to become Utah’s first back-to-back vault winner since Elaine Alfano won national titles in 1982 and 1983. She also won the title in 1985.
“A vault is three seconds so I have this thing that I have to commit to all three seconds and sticking with it to the end,” Rucker said. A lot of athletes say they want to do well for their team, when in reality there might be a quest for personal glory, too, but it’s clear Rucker believes earnestly in her words. The desire to do well for the team is one of Rucker’s most public traits this year. She is constantly talking to teammates and offering words of encouragement or levity.
