Bruin Banter 2016 - Episode 5: Sophina DeJesus

On this week’s Bruin Banter, Danusia Francis is joined by none other than our resident viral Internet sensation Sophina DeJesus.
DeJesus and Francis recap last weekend’s meet against Utah, and then we go down to the floor and listen to what Volunteer Assistant Coach Dom Palange had to say during the team’s exciting comeback on floor exercise.
DeJesus then talks about the choreographic process behind the floor routine that has sent the Internet into a frenzy, in addition to addressing the impact it’s had on her life since. The two teammates finish off the episode in traditional Bruin Banter fashion, answering your burning questions from Twitter.
