A 13-year-old Rocklin girl who police say was killed by her 14-year-old brother and discovered dead in her bedroom by her mother Tuesday was described as a talented gymnast.

The girl was identified as Ashley Wood, according to the Rocklin Police Department. Police have not named Ashley’s brother because of his age.

Ashley was an aspiring gymnast who competed around the country, KTXL-TV reported. Friends posted photographs of the teen at the gym.

In her elementary school yearbook, Ashley wrote that in 10 years, she would “be in the Olympics doing gymnastics,” KOVR-TV reported.
