Mission Viejo's Olivia Teegarden took home medals in all three of her events for the second year in a row at this year's Trampoline and Tumbling Junior Olympic National Championships this past June in San Jose.

Teegarden, 10, competed in the Level 6 double-mini and trampoline competitions, taking home silver and bronze respectively. She also competed in the Level 7, ages 9-10, tumbling division and took third.

To qualify for a medal in all three events, she had to place in the top three in a field of roughly 50 athletes in her age group and level. Teegarden qualified for Junior Olympics at State and Regional Championships, placing first and second in all three events at both qualifying meets.

Teegarden, 10, also made this year's JumpStart National Team for the second year in a row, again taking the top spot in tumbling, and earned the right to train at the JumpStart National Team Training Camp in February in Huntsville, AL. JumpStart is the talent identification program, used to identify future elite athletes at a young age and provide education for their coaches as they prepare for the eventual move to the highest international level.

Teegarden is a fifth-grade honors student in the GATE program at Del Cerro Elementary, and trains at World Elite Gymnastics in Rancho Santa Margarita under coach Peter Dodd.
