June 29, 2020, marked a remarkable day for Jen Bricker Bauer, a state champion in power tumbling, who was born without legs but achieved great success in gymnastics.
Despite being born without legs, Jen's determination and passion for gymnastics led her to become a celebrated athlete. She was adopted by an amazing family who ensured that she never doubted her ability, a rule that helped her forge a life of triumph.
