Olivia Dunne has made it back to the gymnastics arena ahead of the 2024 NCAA season. The first event of the season for the LSU Tigers, Gym 101, was held on Saturday, December 16, 2023, at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Louisiana.

The four-month long, 2024 season will commence on January 5, 2024, in Ohio State and will end on March 23, 2024, at the home arena in New Orleans, Louisiana. With the season nearing, the gymnasts, including Dunne, will be seen dedicating their time to perfecting their skills.
