Kathrin Shamenko has been with APEX for 16 years

Favorite memory from your years at APEX:

It would 100% still be when Marty dumped me in the trash can and left me for a good 15 minutes when I was around 7

Lillian’s Favorite Meet:

Pink Invitational

Toughest skill to learn?

Double back off bars

What do you have planned for the future?

Sadly this is my last year doing any kind of sport. I plan on going to college (hopefully VCU) and studying forensics.

Do you have any words of advice for younger gymnasts?

I was the absolute most stubborn child to work with so I fought with all my coaches and thought I knew everything but that was stupid of me. THE COACHES KNOW BEST!!!
