The invitational is led by Zachary McCue, a passionate advocate for men’s gymnastics and a dedicated supporter of athlete development. With years of experience in the sport as a coach, meet director, and program builder, Zachary has seen firsthand the challenges facing boys’ and collegiate gymnastics — and he’s committed to being part of the solution.

Zack founded the Huskie Gymnastics Classic with a clear vision:
Create opportunities where they’re needed most, and build a community that keeps the sport alive and thriving.

Under Zack's direction, the invitational has become a platform that not only elevates athletes, but also strengthens the NIU Gymnastics team through fundraising, visibility, and community engagement.
