Recruiting Roundup: June 27

With the recruiting window open for the Class of 2027 we’ve got our eye out for those first official visits and look forward to bringing you roundups of the first commits of the class in the coming weeks and months.

Pan American Championships

It was a successful competition for the United States, with the team taking home the gold medal in the team event. Jayla Hang (Florida, ’26) delivered an outstanding performance, winning gold in both the team and all-around competitions. She also completed a full set of medals with bronze on vault and silver on bars, beam, and floor. Hezly Rivera (LSU, ’26) earned bronze in the all-around, despite a challenging bars routine in which she counted two falls. She also qualified for the beam final, where she secured another bronze medal. Tiana Sumanasekera (UCLA, ’25), dealing with a minor ankle injury, competed only on beam. She scored a 13.567 but did not advance to the final due to the two-per-country rule. Dulcy Caylor (Florida, ’26) posted the highest vault score of the competition with a 14.267. However, because she only performed one vault, she was ineligible to qualify for the final.

Raeya Linton (Stanford, ’25), representing Jamaica, placed 18th in the all-around. She qualified for the vault final, where she delivered a strong performance and finished fourth.

Lia Monica Fontaine (five-star, ’27) also had a breakout competition for Canada, earning silver medals in both the all-around and team events. She added a bronze on bars, placed seventh on beam, and claimed gold on floor with a standout routine.

Asian Championships

Cal’s only remaining incoming freshman, Tonya Paulsson—a two-time Swedish national champion now representing Chinese Taipei in international competition—competed in the all-around at the Asian Women’s Artistic Gymnastics Championships, finishing fourth, just one-tenth of a point shy of the bronze medal. She also advanced to the event finals on bars, beam and floor, placing fifth, eighth, and sixth, respectively.

Also competing at the championships were Haylee Garcia (’26) and Cadyn Nyland (’27), who represented the Philippines and placed 13th and 23rd in the all-around, respectively. Lauren Supnet, a three-star recruit in the Class of ’27, was also named to the Philippine team but withdrew after suffering a hyperextended knee during warmups.

Nyland’s WOGA teammate, Anujin Gomboluudev (’27), competed for Mongolia and placed 20th in the all-around.

Commitment Switches

• Simone Brown, a five-star recruit, has announced that she will reclassify from the class of 2025 to 2026. Following her decommitment from Clemson, she will join the Razorbacks at Arkansas.
• Sophie Stuart (four-star, ‘25) has flipped her commitment from Cal to Clemson, where she will be on a full ride. Stuart’s departure leaves Cal with just one remaining athlete from its originally recruited 2025 class.
