SAINT PAUL, Minn. – Former University of Oklahoma women's gymnast Chelle Stack was inducted into the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame Friday as part of the 2011 Visa Championships in Saint Paul, Minn.
Stack was part of the 2011 Hall of Fame class along with Jim Culhane, Jill Hollembeak, Tamara Levinson, Kristen Maloney, Elise Ray and Stacy Maloney.
“It is an incredible honor to be named to the Hall of Fame and only the best of the best receive that honor,” OU head coach K.J. Kindler said. “We are excited and proud our former Sooner, Chelle Stack, is being recognized for her phenomenal achievements and contributions to USA Gymnastics.”
Stack competed for the Sooners during the 1994 and 1995 seasons. OU finished second in the Big Eight conference in both of Stack's seasons with the team. Stack helped the Sooners to two NCAA regional appearances.
Stack was a member of the U.S. Olympic Team that placed fourth at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Korea.
Stack won the U.S. title for the uneven bars in 1988-89. Her other top finishes at the nationals include second on floor in 1989, third on floor in 1988 and tied for third on the uneven bars in 1991.
