Olivia Dunne is over the moon that the NCAA gymnastics competition season has arrived, and she and her teammates are celebrating with a little dance.

The LSU Tigers defeated Ohio State University last Friday, Jan. 5, for the first meet of the season, with a final score of 196.975-196.775.

The SI Swimsuit model dropped a hilarious TikTok jamming along to Tokyo Vanity’s upbeat and groovy bop, “That’s My Best Friend.” Dunne donned an extra shiny purple-and-gold version her signature LSU-emblazoned leotard featuring a strappy open back. The 21-year-old, who is dating Pittsburgh Pirates player Paul Skenes, rocked a full face of competition glam, including cute little star stickers near her eyes. Her blonde locks were tossed up into a high ponytail and embellished with a purple bow.

She assumed a lunge position and shifted her weight between legs while pumping her arms back and forth, then faced the camera to lip-sync along. The SI Swimsuit model, who was photographed by Ben Watts in Puerto Rico for the 2023 issue and Portugal for this year’s forthcoming magazine, then turned her back to the camera and shook her hips around.

Her teammate repeated the fun moves immediately after.

“Can i get a geaux tigers?! #foryou #lsu #gymnastics,” the New Jersey native captioned the Jan. 6 post she shared with her 7.9 million followers.

“The leo😍😍😍😍,” one fan complimented, to which Dunne agreed: “A moment for the leo fr >.”

The Tigers are set to compete next on Jan. 13, at the Sprouts Farmers Market Collegiate Quad, the first gymnastics invitational owned and operated by ESPN Events.
