EWING ON PITT
"Studying in the United States at the University of Pittsburgh is going to be a great opportunity for a wonderful education and the opportunity to continue with my gymnastics with a team. I feel that it is an honor to have the opportunity to be a part of such a great institution. They are very supportive and dedicated to their student-athletes, which is more than an athlete could ask for. Coming to Pitt as a student-athlete is a dream come true. The research I discovered about Pitt shows me a university that prepares you for not only a career but also a life once school is complete. It is going to be wonderful to be at Pitt because it is a great school and it fits in with my values that makes a family away from home. I can't wait to be a Panther."
SNIDER ON EWING
"We are excited to add Jordyn to an already talented incoming freshman class. Her talent, poise and international competition experience will be a huge asset for our program. We are looking forward to Jordyn's immediate impact on all four events and continuing to elevate this program's success to the next level."
