mindset. It carried her to Pitt, a
place she said greeted her with
open arms. More than a year
into her collegiate experience,
Ward understands she and her
teammates have the ability —
and in some ways, a responsi-
bility — to make an impact in
ways that stretch far beyond
her sport.
If that means taking a risk
by turning their meets into a
crossroad of sports, society and
politics due to their wardrobe
choice, so be it.
“I think it’s extremely im-
portant to provoke a larger
conversation,” Ward said.
A conversation that’s one of
many being held in her sport
these days. Over the last de-
cade, gymnastics in general
and women’s college gymnas-
tics in particular has been at
the forefront of the fight for
inclusion and diversity. North
Carolina sported T-shirts pro-
moting the “Be True” cam-
paign in 2017 to support the
LGBTQ community, and
“Pride” meets are becoming
more commonplace.
Amid the fallout of the Larry
Nassar scandal, Olympic cham-
pion Simone Biles rocked a teal
leotard at the 2018 USA Gym-
nastics championships honor-
ing survivors of sexual abuse,
a group of which she is a part.
College gymnastics became a
sanctuary of sorts, a place for
the sport to begin healing it-
self from the inside out, a place
where those harmed by Nas-
sar and other abusers found
strength.
The platform keeps growing,
extending to the empowerment
of Black athletes and social
justice movements. UCLA se-
nior Nia Dennis’ floor exercise
routine — which she dubbed
“The Culture” — went viral
last month thanks in part to
her music, a mash-up of hip-
hop icons Kendrick Lamar and
Tupac Shakur.
“The purpose of my floor
routine is to open the eyes
of those around me and also
shine a light on Black excel-
lence,” Dennis said.
Michelle Obama noticed.
Alicia Keys and Biles, too. Yet
Dennis stressed the goal isn’t to
wow as much as it is to inspire.
“I didn’t have very many
people to look up to,” she said.
“So my goal is to always inspire
young Black gymnasts.”
The link between the per-
formance of Dennis and team-
mate Margzetta Frazier — who
unleashed a Janet Jackson-in-
spired routine this week that
caught the legendary artist’s at-
tention — and what is happen-
ing at Pitt this weekend is real.
Call it the byproduct of taking
the paradigm of what coaches
used to think the idea of being
a “good teammate” was and
turning it on its head.
“It felt like if you let the reins
go with your student-athletes,
that somehow they’re going to
run down a terrible dark path,
and them discovering who they
truly are would be antithetical
to being the best team player
they can be,” said UCLA wom-
en’s coach Chris Waller. “It’s
been a long process to realize
that it’s the opposite that’s true.
“As an adult, the more we’re
willing to let them discover
who they are, the more they’re
willing to give themselves to
the team. They find themselves
standing very intentionally on
their own two feet.”
At Pitt, that movement is
capturing a moment while also
attempting to make a lasting
impact. The “BLM” leotards
have captured attention. But
they’re not going away Sunday
night. Instead, they will re-
main in the program for years
to come, a tacit understanding
that progress can’t be made in
a day or a week or a month but
a generation. Persistence and
vision are a vital part of that
process.
“We wanted to make a point
that this is something we live
by,” Snider said. “It’s something
we feel very strongly about. So
we want it to be bold.”

SPORTS BRIEFING
FOOTBALL
Texans, Watt agree to part ways — J.J. Watt didn’t just
play for the Houston Texans, he was the Houston Texans.
Now he’s gone. “I have sat down with the McNair family and I
have asked them for my release and we have mutually agreed
to part ways at this time,” Watt said Friday in a video on social
media. The star defensive end had one year remaining on a

“They wanted to support me
as a Black athlete,” Ward said.
“At the end of the day, they
wanted to speak out against
what they know is wrong.”
Ward remembers watching
the 2012 Summer Olympics
when Gabby Douglas became
the first Black woman to win
an all-around title. That vic-
tory resonated with Ward, then
a 12-year-old growing up in
Maryland who wondered how
far the sport could take her.
“Personally I would say
(gymnastics) is a predomi-

“Sometimes when you don’t

her neck changed Ward’s whole
