As an elite gymnast considering her college opportunities, Lacie Saltzmann was most concerned with academics, team culture, and a great Jewish community on campus — which is how the Texas all-around champion ended up at the University of Minnesota. Saltzmann has competed in every meet this season as a true freshman and has been entrusted with the lead-off spot on floor exercise. We talk about how her first season has gone so far, preparing for the upcoming NCAA regional meets (starting April 3 in Corvallis, Ore.), and finding Jewish life on campus, on this week’s Who The Folk?! Podcast.
