Cheers and jubilation rang out in Bercy Arena as Jade Carey (at center) celebrated with teammates Jordan Chiles, Sunisa Lee and Simone Biles on July 30 after winning the artistic gymnastics team gold at the Paris Olympics. Carey battled through sickness to earn the team medal, as well as an individual bronze in vault — a welcome redemption after she stumbled during that event in 2021. When added to her Tokyo Olympics gold medal in floor exercise, this brings Carey’s Olympic and World Championship medal total to 10. She is the fifth most-decorated U.S. female gymnast of all time and an eight-time All-American. Carey holds multiple OSU records. She alone accounts for one-third of all the “perfect 10” scores earned for gymnastic performances in school history. To top it off,  she was named to the Academic All-America First team.
