2 THE D-D BREAUX FILE Hometown: Donaldsonville, La. College: LSU, 76 As a Gymnast Competed at Southeastern Louisiana University in 1972 and She led Southeastern to a second-place finish at the 1972 AIAW Gymnastics Championships. Coaching Experience Assistant Coach Southeastern La Head Coach LSU Began her coaching career at Southeastern as a student assistant. Transferred to LSU in 1976 and took over as head coach in 1978 while also working toward her master s degree. D-D Breaux HEAD COACH 42nd SEASON With each passing season, LSU gymnastics continues to collect more honors and titles to its storied program, and head coach D-D Breaux has been the catalyst behind LSU s sustained success. Led by Breaux, LSU has seen increasing accomplishments that includes 16 NCAA Championships appearances in the last 17 seasons, seven Super Six appearances since 2008 and 12 individual national titles since Under Breaux s leadership and coaching, LSU has reached new heights in individual and team success. Now entering her 42nd season as the mastermind of the LSU gymnastics program, Breaux exudes the same passion and enthusiasm to coach the Fighting Tigers as she did in her first season on the job. The 2018 season marked another one for the history books as the Tigers won SEC Championships, earned 33 wins and finished fourth nationally. Sarah Finnegan took home the SEC all-around title and was named the league s gymnast of the year. LSU gymnasts earned a school record 28 All-America honors. Breaux led the 2017 squad to the best season in school history. From beginning to end, the Tigers were masterful on the floor with 34 wins and a historic sweep of the Southeastern Conference. Ashleigh Gnat along with Finnegan and Kennedi Edney also took home the most NCAA national championships at a meet in school history with three. The Tigers ultimately finished second in the nation to match the best finish in school history. In 2016, Breaux reached the exclusive 700 career win milestone as the team compiled a 31-6 overall record, the first time in school history LSU had reached the 30-win mark. In 2015, Breaux guided LSU to a 13-1 overall regular season record, which included a perfect 7-0 record against SEC competition for the first time in school history. The list of achievements in 2014 includes a program-record third-place national finish in the NCAA Super Six Finals, another individual national title by Rheagan Courville on vault, the 13th regional title in school history, the highest score in program history on three different occasions, 20 total All- America honors including a nation-leading five First- Team All-Americans, and a then school-record 13 consecutive meets with at least a 197 score. In 2013, LSU recorded the 12th regional team title in school history, and the Tigers reached the NCAA Super Six for the third time in 2013, recording a fifth-place finish. In 2010 LSU reached the NCAA Championships for the ninth straight year while senior Susan Jackson became the first LSU gymnast to capture the NCAA national title, and she also won the 2010 balance beam title to become LSU s first three-time NCAA champion. In 2008 LSU joined elite company by advancing to the NCAA Super Six Finals as Breaux and the Tigers broke through into the six-team field for the first time in program history to compete for college gymnastics national championship. The Tigers placed fifth. As the Dean of Coaches at LSU, Breaux has represented the University at the highest level both in the gym and, most importantly, in the classroom for more than 40 years. Her dedication to the student-athlete on an individual basis has transcended into academic success, community involvement, Coach of the Year honors, SEC Championships, NCAA Regional Championships and Top-10 national rankings throughout her tenure. In fact, there is a tremendous balance between academics and athletics as LSU has produced 239 ALL-AMERICANS and 150 Scholastic All-Americans during Breaux s tenure. During her tenure Breaux has established and maintained LSU s reputation as one of the premier collegiate gymnastics programs in the country. Under her tutelage, the Tigers have placed among the nation s top-10 teams 29 times in 41 seasons, finishing a program-best second in 2016 and 2017, third in 2014, fourth in 1988 and 2018, fifth in 2008 and 2013 and sixth on four separate occasions. Under her leadership, LSU has captured 13 individual national titles, 239 All-America honors and 85 All-SEC selections.
