Tasia Percevecz made her CrossFit Games debut in 2016 with an impressive 15th-place finish. A competitive gymnast since childhood, Percevecz had dreamed of being an elite gymnast, but fell short of her aspirations in college. Looking for a new sport, she started CrossFit in 2013. A trainer at CrossFit Free in Salem, New Hampshire, Percevecz took five top-10 event finishes in her first Games appearance.
