The gymnast who broke both legs in a frightening fall spoke after her student career was cut short, claiming that she "could not be more proud" of her accomplishments.

Samantha Cerio broke her two legs and dislocated both knees in a disgusting wound filmed while she was representing Auburn University in Alabama. Now, she bid farewell to her gymnastics career in a very sincere Instagram post as a result of her injury.

Here is Samantha Cerio, LSU competitor and successful:

Cerio also paid tribute to Auburn University, where she had been part of the gymnastics team for four years, claiming that she was "honored" to have represented the university .

"Thanks to the Auburn family for giving me a home and a chance to continue practicing this sport that will always be my first love. I am honored to have the privilege of representing the Navy and the Orange AU for four years with my team at my side.

Thank you for letting me share my passion with you. Thank you for letting me be part of something bigger than me. "

Despite the trauma of losing Cerio so hard, his team rallied to finish strong, winning second place in the overall standings and a place in the final the next day. Unfortunately, they finished fourth in the final, which means that the Auburn University season is now over.
