Grace Fugui Glenn (born April 27, 1998 in Nanchang, China) is an American artistic gymnast.[1] She is currently a member of the UCLA Bruins gymnastics team.[2]
Early and personal life
[edit]Glenn was born in Nanchang, China and was adopted by Neil and Cindi Glenn, along with her twin sister Anna. She graduated from South Mecklenburg High School in 2016.
Career
[edit]College
[edit]In the fall of 2016 she began attending the University of California, Los Angeles, joining the UCLA Bruins gymnastics program for the 2016-2017 season.[3] However, she sustained a torn labrum, and so Glenn redshirted her freshman year (the 2016-2017 season).[4]
2019-2020 season
[edit]On January 12, at a meet against Boise State, Glenn began the balance beam rotation with a then career-high 9.975, securing her the meet title.[5] On February 23, at a meet against Utah, Glenn scored the first ever 10.0 for a lead-off gymnast, also winning the meet title.[6]
