Storytime with Kathy Johnson Clarke

We are so excited to bring you our conversation with the one and only Kathy Johnson Clarke! She’s a world bronze medalist, an Olympic silver and bronze medalist, an American Cup Champion, a national champion with Centenary College, where she competed in 1978 and 1979 — long before it was cool to do elite and college gymnastics at the same time — and of course she’s a beloved commentator who has graced television screens in our sport for 41 years. Kathy shared so many incredible stories with us from helping to bring the gymnastics program back at Centenary, she shares how Friday Night Heights got its start, and of course her retirement as a commentator and all of the emotions that surfaced, a lot of which stem from her experiences as a gymnast.
