2020 TUG Awards: Greatness Doesn't Quit

5/8/2020

The 2020 Greatness Doesn't Quit Award goes to Jazmyn Estrella

 

Hailing from Allentown, Pa., Estrella shined in her final collegiate season, guiding the Owls as a team captain. She competed on three events for Temple, logging 27 routines on vault, bars, and beam. Estrella's near perfect 9.95 bars routine on February 21 now stands atop the Temple record book as the highest bars score in program history, and the highest score by any Owl on any event in nearly two decades. She also posted season-bests of 9.85 on vault and 9.8 on beam contributing to five total event titles. Estrella finished out her fantastic career with All-ECAC honors on both bars and vault.

Jaz is relentless. She came to Temple in a non-traditional way, but we are sure glad she made her way to North Broad Street. In the last two seasons Jaz has pushed herself to compete in three events. This season, she earned a school record 9.95 on the uneven bars cementing herself in the Temple University history books. She overcame many obstacles, and even earned a spot as a team captain. We are pleased to present Jazmyn Estrella the 2020 Temple Gymnastics “Greatness Doesn’t Quit” award.  
Josh Nilson, Head Coach

Congratulations, Jaz!
