In September 2023, Margzetta Frazier made a remarkable return for her sixth year with UCLA gymnastics. Welcomed back onto the Bruins’ 2024 roster with open arms, Coach Janelle McDonald expressed her excitement, stating, “We could not be more excited to have her back and have her leadership and her experience.” Despite fracturing her foot in the first meet of the 2022 campaign, Frazier returned to UCLA as a redshirt senior in 2023. Conversations about her return for the 2024 season began midway through the previous season, as she still had her COVID-19 year of eligibility.

Despite efforts to keep her, in March 2024, the official UCLA Gymnastics X account announced Frazier’s departure with a heavy heart, noting, “We kept her as long as we could.” As she bid her final goodbye to Pauley Pavilion, the gymternet was left in tears, marking the end of her illustrious six-year career.

In a heartfelt post on her X platform, 24-year-old Margzetta Frazier bid farewell to the UCLA Gymnastics Bruins. With a simple “Thank you ❤️,” she shared two pictures of her goodbye speech. In her post, she expressed gratitude to her coaches, teammates, and family, saying, “Where do I even begin… I have so many people to thank. I was just a moonwalking, national anthem singing, karate chopping, parkour flipping, capoeira kicking, theater kid from the Ville, who fell in love with gymnastics.”

She went on to thank her parents for their steadfast support, her coaches for their guidance and mentorship, and her Parkettes family for taking her in and making her a champion. Reflecting on her time at UCLA, she expressed her love for her teammates and the unforgettable memories they created together. “The last few years have been the best years of my career,” she said.
