Coaches
Varsity coaches Tracy Duncan and Karen Renner have been with University High School gymnastics since 2003. Due to the commitment of the Central Valley School District to the gymnastics program, the University High School administrative staff's support, the University High School's Booster Club's financial support, and the amazing young women who have been a part of the University High School Gymnastics program, Tracy and Karen have been able to develop a superior, competitive team with amazing results. They bring a unique blend of coaching and judging to the program with an emphasis on academics, personal growth of gymnasts, and commitment to others. They believe strongly in positive practices where the gymnast learns to push herself, set her own goals, and achieve what she must to not only improve herself but to help the team.
