This week we’re excited to bring you this interview with the talented Maggie Slife, who is currently dominating her junior season at Air Force! A two-time Mountain West Gymnast of the Year, she has also earned Specialist of the Year honors across the all-around and every event. Maggie holds multiple program and conference records, including a 9.975 on bars and beam and a 39.675 in the all-around, and ranks among the top eight gymnasts in the nation on bars and in the all-around. Since this interview was recorded ahead of conference championships, she has continued to build on an already historic season — helping lead Air Force to its first NCAA Regionals appearance in 24 years. Beyond her achievements in the gym, Maggie is known for her discipline, drive, and ability to balance excellence across all areas of her life, making her not only an elite athlete but an inspiring individual as well.

This week, we’re bringing you the third episode in our Coaches Corner series, featuring an interview with Ryan Roberts, who is entering his first season at the helm of Auburn. Before becoming Auburn’s head coach, Ryan spent four years at Georgia—two as the co-head coach and two as an assistant coach. He also spent four years as an assistant coach at Alabama and five years coaching at the club level at WOGA. Ryan brings a wealth of experience to the Plains, along with a passion that could help bring Auburn back into the conversation when it comes to contending for a spot in the night session at SECs and, of course, qualifying for NCAAs. We discuss Ryan’s coaching philosophy, what he hopes to bring to Auburn, his goals for the upcoming season, and, of course, get updates on individual athletes.

We’re kicking off the Coaches Corner series for the fourth year, and we’re starting things off with a new face on the show: Brett Nelligan, who is entering his 18th season as head coach of the Maryland Terrapins. During his tenure with the Terps, Brett has brought in some of the top recruiting classes in program history and led the program to 14 NCAA Regional appearances. This season could be a good one for the Terps, as they bring in a strong transfer class, a large and talented freshman class, and returners who have been putting in the work this offseason and are looking pretty dang good from what we’ve seen so far. Brett joins us to talk about his philosophy regarding transfers, athletes to watch, goals for the season, and more.
