And if it wasn’t horrible enough, her club gym was contracted with SCSU to be their practice facility since 2003 ... so both her college teammates and coaches and her club teammates and coaches were there when this all happened.... how does a team go on after witnessing something so devastating?

Was she doing a double back dismount? This is beyond frightening and terribly sad.
I feel so sick over this. Is anyone else sitting here today saying to themselves that this just isn't worth it?

Yes. When I first heard the news, my immediate thought was to pull my daughter out the sport. I have always known there were risks with this sport, but this just made it real.
I also know that I can’t bubble wrap her either. Statistically speaking, she’s more likely to be seriously harmed on the way to practice than during it. As tragic as it is, accidents like these are rare (at least I haven’t heard of any others) and DD is in a very safety conscious gym. For now, I’m ok with her remaining in the sport. But it definitely makes you stop and think.
