Lindenwood University gymnastics head coach Catelyn Orel has added Sienna Crouse to her staff as an assistant coach.

"I am beyond excited to announce Sienna as one of our assistants for this year" said Orel. "She knows the level of commitment and work ethic it takes to be great and compete at a high level. She is a well decorated NCAA athlete and has a passion for the sport that will be a tremendous asset to our program."

Crouse joins the Lions after spending last year as a volunteer assistant at the University of Kentucky. While on the staff at UK, she helped coach the Wildcats to a 9-6-1 record during the 2020 season, where five individuals earned All-SEC honors, while seeing the team advance to the Salt Lake City Regional Finals.

On the competition floor, she was a six-time Women's Collegiate Gymnastics Association All-American, three-time All-Big Ten selection and three-time Big Ten All-Championship honoree at the University of Nebraska.

"I am honored to be able to coach alongside my former teammate, Catelyn, and be apart of a staff who bring so much wealth from their personal experiences as athletes." said Crouse. "Lindenwood gymnastics has been a successful growing program the past nine years and I can't wait to see it continue with the leadership of this coaching staff!"

Crouse graduated from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln with a degree in business management in 2019, where she was a Scholastic All-American in 2016, a three-time Academic All-Big Ten member, and a seven-time NU Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll student.
