Three Florida gymnasts were removed from the roster Wednesday.
Senior Skylar Draser and juniors Ly Bui and Lily Bruce are no longer with the team. A reason for release has not been publicly shared.
“We wish them well moving forward,” coach Jenny Rowland said in a statement. “Our focus remains on supporting our athletes and maintaining a team culture built on accountability, respect and commitment.”
Draser, the most productive of the trio during her time at Florida, competed in all four events and led off the beam lineup in most meets. She holds career highs of 9.95 on vault and beam, and contributed heavily to creating “The Promise,” the Gators motto, to guide them toward a NCAA Championships appearance and top-four finish.
Bui graduated high school early, joining the program at 16 years old. She was an all-around gymnast for the Gators, competing vault, bars and beam with an exhibition appearance on floor.
The Iowa native holds a career high of 9.925 on vault, hitting that mark three times, including in the leadoff spot of the 2026 season opener. Bui hyperextended her knee on the event on Jan. 23, sidelining her for the rest of the season.
Bruce had only competed exhibition routines on bars, acting as the event’s alternate and posting a career high of 9.8 on the event on Jan. 9 and March 13.
WRUF reached out to Draser, Bui and Bruce, but has yet to receive a response at the time of publication.
