Jade Carey opens up about her favorite Olympic memory and coming back to Oregon as a coach
Jade Carey recently opened up about her favourite Olympic memory. It did not involve her winning a medal, but rather a memory that happened off the mat. Carey told Olympics.com that her favourite Olympic moment was when Simone Biles helped the former OSU gymnast calm her nerves before the big competition.
She said (via Olympics.com):
"I remember when everything was happening with Simone Biles in Tokyo], and I was maybe going into the all-around final. I was freaking out because I’d never done anything like that before.Simone came to my room and was like, ‘Hey, I can’t do this, but you can.That was just a really powerful moment for me because I knew how much she was going through and for her to still come over and be like, ‘You got this,’ meant a lot to me.."
Carey also shared her views on coming back to Oregon State University as a coach. The former OSU gymnast opened up in a press conference and said in April (10:18 onwards)
"I think about that a lot actually, I don’t know because I’ve never really obviously coached before but I definitely love to help the girls out in gym and give them a little pointers so I think that it could definitely be a possibility..."
Jade Carey committed to OSU when she was 14 and had been there with the program for 11 years.
