Summary
Texas State University is launching the first NCAA Division I women’s gymnastics program in Texas, set to debut in spring 2028—just as the school joins the Pac-12. This historic move fills a void left by the state’s gymnastics legacy, offering homegrown talent a top-tier collegiate pathway. With a national search underway for a head coach and Olympic champions Jordyn Wieber and Carly Patterson leading recruitment efforts, this expansion isn’t just about sports—it’s about building a new legacy and reshaping opportunities for Texas athletes who’ve long had to leave home to compete.
