Dunne, 20, is still recovering from the leg injury that has kept her on the sidelines since December.

One commented: “I am too stunned to speak.”
Another added: “Absolute perfection.”
And a third said: “So, so beautiful.”
Shchennikova matched her career-high all-around score of 39.525 against Auburn, and LSU recorded a season-high road tally of 197.500,

“Overall, I thought it was a very good meet,” head coach Jay Clark said after the loss.
“We stayed aggressive and stayed true to our message.
“We’ll continue to keep climbing and keep getting better.”
Meanwhile, Dunne keeps sharing updates on her career and life with millions of her followers.
