Lee Dockins of Russellville continues her national and world dominance in Special Olympics gymnastics.

It was announced last week that Dockins, 27, has been selected to compete with Team USA in the 2015 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Los Angeles. Previously she has competed in two World Summer Games—in Shanghai in 2007 and in Athens, Greece in 2011.

She has won five gold medals in World Games, including the gold in the all-round rhythmic gymnastics competition in Greece. She has medaled in eight World Games events.

In June, the graduate of Logan County High School won two gold medals along with two silvers and a bronze in a different type of gymnastics—artistic—at the 2014 Special Olympics USA Games in New Jersey. She has been competing with Team Kentucky since 2006 and was Special Olympics Kentucky Athlete of the Year in 2007.

Lee Dockins has been a Special Olympics athlete for 18 years. She is coached by Donnie and Polly Porter of Logan County Gymnastics.

The daughter of Harris and Sharon Dockins, she joins her brothers as award winning athletes. Her older brother, Frank Harris, was the state winner of the Game Guy Award from the Kentucky High School Athletic Association. Her younger brother, John Logan, is the all-time passing leader for LCHS football and he was Academic All-Conference while playing baseball for Faulkner University in Alabama this spring.
