Isabella Magnelli and Raena Worley Named WCGA National Championship All-America Awards
LEXINGTON, Ky. – Isabella Magnelli and Raena Worley represented Team 50 as individual qualifiers at the 2024 NCAA Gymnastics Championships earning First Team WCGA National Championship All-America honors.
Magnelli rotated with Alabama Gymnastics competing on the balance beam while Worley took her talents to the floor exercise with Utah Gymnastics.
On beam, Magnelli posted a 9.950 performing a beautiful and balanced routine to close her senior season. Worley completed her collegiate gymnastics career on floor rocking the exercise for the last time earning a 9.950.
Magnelli is now a three-time All-America honoree earning a first-team championship nod for the second consecutive year. Worley, a 13-time All-American, was awarded her second championship honor for her performance on floor at the National Championships, earning second-team floor honors last season.
The pair qualified for the national competition after strong performances in the Fayetteville, Ark. Regional earlier this month. The two Wildcats were the highest-placing individuals on beam and floor out of the teams who did not advance to the championships.
Kentucky gymnastics’ 50th season came to a close in the final round of the Fayetteville Regional held at Bud Walton Arena. The Wildcats tallied a 197.475, but it was not enough to advance to the NCAA Championship. UK ended the season ranked No. 9 overall which tied the second-highest final ranking in program history.
