Who is… Laurie Hernandez Gymnastics Beginnings

Lauren Hernandez was born

on June 9, 2000 in New

Brunswick, NJ. Her parents

put their 5-year-old daughter

in dance and ballet classes,

but it wasn’t holding her

attention—her parents had to bribe her with sugar

cookies to make her go to class. One day, a more

exhilarating sport caught her eye.

“My earliest memory was watching gymnastics on live

TV, and wanting to do what the ‘big girls’ did,”

Hernandez said. “I started a gymnastics class at five years

old, but it became serious at seven.”

Hernandez began taking recreational classes, and also

gained the nickname Laurie because there were other

Lauren’s at her gym. Soon she was spotted by Maggie

Haney, who has now been her coach for nearly 10 years.

Haney hadn’t coached an elite gymnast before, but the

two learned and grew together as a team.

When Hernandez was nine, Haney started looking into

getting her promising young gymnast into USA

Gymnastics’ national development camps. She could

attend if she had a high enough score in the Talent

Opportunity program (TOPs), which measures basic

gymnastics skills and physical aptitude. According to

ESPNW, when Haney’s contact at USA Gymnastics

looked up Hernandez’s TOPs score, she said, “Oh, she’s

the No. 1 TOPs kid in the country. She can come.”

Breakout Moment

Hernandez rose quickly through the ranks of junior

gymnastics—in 2012 she finished 21st in the all-around

at the national championships and in 2013 13-year-old

Hernandez finished second and won event medals on

uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise.

But then she was hit by injury, first fracturing her wrist

early in 2014 and then dislocating her right kneecap,

tearing her patella ligament and bruising her MCL all on

one bad vault landing that same year. The knee injuries

required surgery and a piece of a cadaver’s ligament was

attached to her own.

She didn’t compete at all in 2014 as she worked her way

back to full strength. She had no trouble making up for

lost time in 2015: she went undefeated in the all-around

over all four of the competitions, two domestic and two

international, she entered that year. At the national

championships, she not only claimed the all-around gold

but won medals on all four events: gold on uneven bars,

silver on floor exercise, and bronzes on vault and

balance beam.

Still just 15 years old, Hernandez burst into the

conversation surrounding possible Olympic teams.

Luckily, she became age-eligible to compete in the Rio

Games when she turned 16 in 2016.

Major Competitions

Hernandez made her senior debut at the 2016 City of

Jesolo Trophy, a friendly international competition in

Italy. She fit right in with the older, more experienced

gymnasts, helping the U.S. women to team gold and

winning beam gold, vault silver and all-around bronze.

Hernandez put in a more than solid performance at her

next competition, the Pacific Rim Championships. Three-

time world champion Simone Biles won the all-around,

with 2012 Olympic floor champion Aly Raisman finishing

second—and then just 0.100 points behind Raisman was

Hernandez.

Laurie Hernandez competes on floor with

attitude at Pac Rim

Hernandez then had to hit pause on her training to treat

another knee injury, and she only competed on two

events at the Secret U.S. Classic. After using Classics as

a tune-up meet, Hernandez showed her strongest

gymnastics yet at the 2016 P&G Championships. She

again finished just behind Biles and Raisman to claim all-

around bronze, and finished third on three events.

Olympic Trials highlights

Hernandez was at her best at the 2016 Olympic Trials,

showing no signs of struggling with the immense

pressure on her shoulders. She finished second in the all-

around and earned the highest scores on beam.

2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics

On August 7, Hernandez competed in the Women’s

Qualification at the 2016 Summer Olympics where the

top 8 placing teams get to advance to the Team All

Around Finals. Hernandez scored a 15.200 on the vault,

a 15.366 on the balance beam, and a 14.800 on the floor

exercise, qualifying to the balance beam event finals.

Hernandez was unable to compete in the All Around

Finals because there is an Olympic rule stating that only

two athletes may represent their country in All Around

Finals. August 9 was the Team All Around Finals,

meaning each country had 3 girls compete on each event

and all scores counted. The US team, known as the Final

Five, won the gold medal in the Team All Around.

On August 15 during Event Finals,

Hernandez won a silver medal on the

Balance Beam with a score of 15.333.

She placed ahead of teammate Simone

Biles, who placed 3rd with a score of

14.733 and behind Sanne Wevers of

the Netherlands, who won gold

Signature

Hernandez competes with no

shortage of expressiveness and

personality, especially on the floor

exercise. International Gymnast

Magazine called Hernandez the

“Human emoji” and gymnastics

podcast Gymnastic nicknamed her

“baby Shakira.” With her early dance

training and in imitable style ,

Hernandez always puts on a show

when she performs.

After her gymnastics career ends,

Hernandez says she’d love to keep

performing—but as an actress.

Outside the Gym

Hernandez has been homeschooled

since the third grade, and is planning

to continue both her education and

her gymnastics career as an NCAA

student-athlete at the University of

Florida.

For fun, Hernandez enjoys learning

dances off YouTube, doing her nails,

and reading—she names The Maze

Runner as her favorite book. She also

shows her creativity by writing poems,

sketching and using Photoshop to edit

photos.

History: January was named after the Roman god Janus.

Janus is also the Roman word for door. The god Janus had

two faces which allowed him to look forwards into the

coming year and backwards into the past year.

The original Roman calendar only had 10 months. January

and February were not included, but were added later.

Fun Facts about January

On average, it is the coldest month of the year in the

Northern Hemisphere.

It is the second month of winter.

In the Southern Hemisphere January is a summer month

the equivalent of July.

Sometimes the Saxons called January the wolf month

because hungry wolves would come into their towns

searching for food this time of year.

For a long period of European history, the start of the

New Year occurred in March.
