The Yulo bloodline continues to grow in the Philippine gymnastic scene. 

Karl Eldrew and Elaiza Andriel, siblings of Olympian and World Gymnastics champion Carlos Yulo, are both slowly making names for themselves as they soared high in the Batang Pinoy 2023 Artistic Gymnastics competition held last December at the Gymnastics Association of the Philippines Gymnasium in Intramuros, Manila. 

Both of the Yulo siblings are enrolled in the University’s Basic Education Department. 

Karl participated in the Boys' FIG Juniors 14-17 category where he won all the individual events -- vault, floor exercise, high bar, still rings, parallel bar, pommel horse -- and the individual all-around. He was also part of the top squad in the competition, Manila, for his eighth gold medal. 

Recently, Karl also won six gold medals at the Palarong Pambansa 2023 in the Men's Secondary Artistic Gymnastics on August 4 at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum. He swept all top places in the individual events -- floor exercise, horizontal bar, pommel horse, vault, individual all-around – and along with the team event top spot. 

Meanwhile, Elaiza Andriel captured gold medals in the FIG juniors division, ruling the vault with a score of 12 and floor exercise with a score of 11.3 to also join her older brother, Karl Eldrew, in the winners’ circle of the same competition.
