MaryAnne Kelley
Women's Gymnastics - 1999-2002
HOF Class of 2016
Prior to the 2002 season, only one female Gopher gymnast had ever been named the conference's Gymnast of the Year. That changed when MaryAnne Kelley earned the award that season, a year in which she won the NCAA Regional title on floor exercise and took fourth in the nation, while also placing fifth in the all-around at the national meet.
Her contributions helped the Gophers to the program's best-ever finish at NCAAs that spring. Kelley was a three-time First Team All-Big Ten performer, as well as a three-time All-American, during her Gopher career.
