Senior gymnast Samantha Cerio had to be carted out in a stretcher from an NCAA gymnastics regional event on Friday after a serious leg injury during her floor routine. Samantha Cerio was making her first pass at the Baton Rouge Regional, attempting a handspring double front with a blind landing when she made the hard landing and fell to the mat. “It was pretty tough to watch,” Auburn coach Jeff Graba said after the meet. “She’s a trouper. The last thing she said was, ‘Go help the girls.’ The girls rallied around her. They’re doing this for her right now.”
