After winning the NCAA title with the LSU gymnastics team, Olivia Dunne remains uncertain about her future with the Tigers.

Over the weekend, LSU historically brought home its first national title in gymnastics in thrilling fashion in Forth Worth, Texas. The Tigers barely edged second-placed Berkley after junior Aleah Finnegan scored a 9.95 as their final performer on the beam.

Although an injury limited her participation in the championships, Dunne joined the celebration after playing an important role all season. Despite being part of a historic team, Dunne is still unsure about returning to Baton Rouge for a fifth year.

'It definitely makes me want to come back, but I haven't quite thought about it completely,' Dunne told TODAY. 'I've just been focused on the now and winning this national title, so I'll definitely start thinking about it.'

While Dunne has competed with LSU for four years and will graduate in May, she has a year of college eligibility left due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
