West Virginia athlete Mary Lou Retton was only 16 years old when she became a household name after she made the American gymnastics team and competed in the 1984 Summer Olympics Games held in Los Angeles … where MLR took home the gold medal in individual all-around, as well as two silver and two bronze medals.
Retton was part of a power-packed squad of young gymnasts including Pamela Bileck, Tracee Talavera, Kathy Johnson, Michelle Dusserre and Julianne McNamara … who worked together to win the silver medal in the team all-around.
Guess what Mary Lou Retton looks like now at 53 years old!
