COLUMBUS, Ohio ( WCMH ) — Jennifer Sanders won’t be alone as she attempts to win American Ninja Warrior. She’ll have her husband, Ryan, who has previously competed on the show, family, and friends in Las Vegas to support her.
She’ll also be joined by another central Ohio ninja, Sydney Yee from Powell. Both qualified by advancing in the battle rounds filmed in Los Angeles.
“It kind of feels like a dream every single time,” said Sanders, who is competing on the show for the fourth time. “I can’t believe it. Every time I step on the stage that I’m actually there competing because it’s every kid’s dream that trains here. To be on the show. And so to live that dream is just amazing.”

Yee was one of the dozens of supporters who gathered Monday night to watch Sanders on the latest episode of the NBC show. The huge group went crazy every time Sanders showed up on the screen. They cheered loudly every time she made a successful jump, and cheered a little louder when she completed each obstacle, including the one that sent her to the finals.
