One of the most high-profile couples to ever emerge from LSU athletics can now boast two national championships.

Now a pitcher in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ farm system after being taken #1 overall in last year’s MLB Draft, Paul Skenes led the LSU Baseball Tigers to a championship in Omaha last summer. And now his main squeeze has her own triumph to boast about.

Livvy Dunne, the moneymaking social media star who also happens to be an accomplished gymnast, lit up Instagram over the weekend after the LSU Gymnastics Tigers earned their first every natty.

LSU posted a 198.225 score to knock off California, Utah and Florida in the final meet of the season and become only the eighth gymnastics program in NCAA history to earn a national title.

The win wraps up Dunne’s college athletic career, sending her out on top. So what’s next?

Not much is known as of yet about Dunne’s plans moving forward, but she will appear in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue for a second straight year and remains a top draw on social media, where she pulls down a hefty paycheck thanks to her sponsorships and NIL deals.
