    Getting to Know Auburn Gymnast Lauren Brzostowski A unique look at the 2009 Tiger gymnasts



    Oct. 13, 2008

    We want to start the preseason out by introducing the gymnasts to Tiger fans. Every Monday throughout this upcoming year, we will uniquely get to know one of our gymnasts by asking them interesting questions about themselves.

    By doing this, everyone can get to know them a little better-- not just as an athlete, but as a student, a family member and a friend. This week, the spotlight is on Lauren Brzostowski from York, Pa. Brzostowski is currently a sophomore at Auburn majoring in apparel merchandising.
