Simone Biles is well known for her shenanigans outside of her sport, which makes her a likeable personality. Biles has not only mastered the skill of gymnastics by being a 4x Olympic gold medalist, but has also ventured out to support and develop the sport in so many ways. One such virtue that sets Biles apart from the rest is her unending commitment towards mental health and hyping up the NCAA athletes. Continuing the trend, Biles acknowledged yet another NCAA talent, making her morale go up significantly.

A road clash at the Baton Rouge saw the no.12 Auburn gymnastics team square off against the no.3 LSU Tigers. Although Auburn lost the game, they managed to put up a valiant score of 197.100, the highest of the season, with Hollingsworth scoring an impressive all-around of 49.475. 

Now with the Queen in her support, Hollingsworth is expected to deliver more such impressive numbers going forward. Speaking about Biles, this is not the only instance of her coming to the aid of the NCAA athletes.

An infamous and ugly brash took centre stage when the LSU Tigers clinched the title getting the better of the Iowa Hawkeyes last year. Riding high on confidence, Angel Reese took the attack to the opposition to dominate proceedings. What she also took to the Hawkeyes’ Caitlin Clark was a gesture that unfortunately did not sit well with them. 

Reese pointed her ring finger at Clark and mimicked the iconic gesture of WWE superstar John Cena’s ‘You Can’t See Me’. Reese faced a huge backlash for her actions, which were supposedly insulting. However, the teenage basketball sensation found an able ally in Simone Biles. Biles retweeted one of Reese’s posts that read, “I LOVE BEING A BLACK QUEEN.😇” Such a gesture from Biles confirmed her support for Reese on the ongoing controversy.
