University of Washington

Caitlin McWilliams

I was lucky enough to be a part of Incline from the beginning, and I can confidently say it shaped me in ways beyond gymnastics. I grew into a leader by helping lay the foundation that Incline stands for. That experience taught me how to lead with purpose and rally others towards a shared vision. I carry those leadership qualities with me everyday, inside and out of the gym. 

I was given the opportunity to continue my gymnastics career at the University of Washington which was a dream come true. I couldn't have made it without my Incline family and how they prepared me, both mentally and physically. College athletics has challenged me in new ways, but the lessons I learned in my club years gave me everything I needed to thrive. After moving on from Incline, I love seeing the legacy we left behind. Watching the next generation cheer each other on, support one another, and carry forward the culture we created makes me so proud, and I can't wait to see what else they accomplish. I'm forever grateful for Incline.
