Utah gymnast Maile O’Keefe has enjoyed individual success at the national championships. Now she wants to share that joy with her teammates.
“I’m not putting pressure on myself,” she said. “Everybody has their days when you mess up and your scores might not count and you have to lean on the team. It’s not about my success, but the success of the team.”
With all the depth the Utes have, coach Tom Farden envisions O’Keefe in most of the lineups, most of the time. O’Keefe is heading into her junior year with the determination of someone who believes she has yet to peak as an athlete. She has worked on floor upgrades and worked hard on her vault. Part of O’Keefe’s motivation is her experience. She is no longer the talented but slightly naive freshman from Las Vegas who started her career hitting 30 of 30 routines.
