LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne recapped some of the top moments from her team’s record-setting win over SEC rival Arkansas. The senior fired off a series of social media posts to commemorate the win, which came in historic fashion for the nation’s third-ranked group.
Dunne and the Tigers entered the weekend at No. 5 in the polls as they geared up for a massive Top 10 battle with the seventh-ranked Razorbacks. Not only would they leave with a resume-boosting victory, but they’d do so in convincing fashion.
LSU posted the highest score in program history, finishing at 198.475 after the vault, bars, beam, and floor routines wrapped up. Not only was it the most impressive output seen by a Tigers squad, but it was the highest total seen by any team this season, as well as the 14th-best in NCAA history.
It was also good enough to edge the Razorbacks, who finished at 196.200.

While the team was riding sky-high on that incredible performance, coach Jay Clark didn’t want to get caught up in the hype.
“I know everyone wants to talk about the score tonight and that’s great,” he said after the win. “I do not focus on whether we get a low or high score. It’s about our performance. We did our job tonight and we can do that same performance somewhere else. For us it’s about keeping our eye on the next step ahead of us and just taking it one step at a time.”
LSU is undoubtedly a national title contender, with this latest showing solidifying their threat to the crown.
To celebrate, Livvy Dunne posted a recap of the event.
“Our pleasure,” an Instagram caption read while flashing photos of the event for her 4.9 million followers.
She’d post a similar message on X though with a more team-oriented caption.
“Doing what I love with the people I love!” she wrote while tagging the LSU gymnastics team account.

Dunne, of course, has made previous waves in college athletics given her success within the NIL market. She’s been able to partner with some of the top companies in the industry, including Sports Illustrated where she recently assumed the role of swimsuit model.
She’s also one half of LSU’s biggest power couple, with the other being boyfriend and national championship winning pitcher Paul Skenes.
The off-mat accolades are notable, but the on-floor list is quickly building, too! She can now say she’s a part of program history as a member of that record-setting team performance.
