Olivia Dunne posts before and after pictures from LSU as she prepares for her final year of college

Olivia Dunne is approaching her final season in the NCAA and went down memory lane ahead of her fifth year at LSU.

On Tuesday, the gymnastics and social media star posted her latest headshot and one of her previous photos for the team site.

The first portrait for her upcoming season shows Dunne wearing an LSU polo and a cross necklace. It was followed by an older headshot, showing her in a purple and gold zip-up from her earlier years in the program.

‘In the blink of an eye #supersenior #old,’ she captioned.

Her final campaign follows their NCAA title-winning efforts at the end of her senior year. The 2023-24 team brought the university’s first national title in gymnastics to Baton Rouge after a dominant regular season.

The Tigers secured their first NCAA title by scoring 198.225 to beat California (197.850), Utah (197.800) and Florida (197.4375) at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth.

‘The national championship, that was obviously the end goal,’ Dunne told the New York Post. ‘That was the cherry on top of my senior year. It’s just so cool to be able to make history like with my whole team.’

After the season, Dunne teased the idea of returning to LSU – practicing her fifth year of eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

‘So I do have eligibility for a fifth year, which I haven’t decided yet,’ she told the Post in the summer. ‘I am thinking about it… But I do have eligibility [for another year at LSU].

On July 8, Dunne declared her return with a video announcement on her social media pages.

Dunne’s four years at LSU saw her add achievements such as the 2023 SEC Academic Honor Roll, 2022 SEC Academic Honor Roll, 2021 WCGA All-American, 2021 WCGA All-American, and 2021 First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll to her resume.

The social media star holds a career-high score of 9.925 in bars, which she achieved in 2021 against Auburn and 2022 against Centenary. She also holds a 9.90 personal record on the floor, which she secured against Alabama in 2022.
