Saat Samantha ditandu keluar arena, penonton bertepuk tangan sambil berdiri untuk memberi semangat pada atlet itu.
Karena cedera mengerikan itu, Samantha harus pensiun sebagai pesenam.
Samantha mengumumkan perihal berhentinya ia di bidang olahraga melalui pesan menyentuh yang ditulisnya dalam akun instagramnya, @sam_cerio pada Minggu (7/4/2019).
Ia mengatakan bahwa Jumat, saat kejadian itu, merupakan hari terakhirnya sebagai pesenam.
"Friday night was my final night as a gymnast. After 18 years I am hanging up my grips and leaving the chalk behind.
I couldn’t be prouder of the person that gymnastics has made me to become. It’s taught me hard work, humility, integrity, and dedication, just to name a few.
It’s given me challenges and road blocks that I would have never imagined that has tested who I am as a person. It may not have ended the way I had planned, but nothing ever goes as planned.
Thank you Auburn family for giving me a home and a chance to continue doing the sport that will always be my first love.
I am honored to have had the privilege to represent the navy and orange AU for the past 4 years with my team by my side.
Thank you for letting me share my passion with you. Thank you for letting me be a part of something bigger than myself.
War Eagle Always"
