She became a collegiate gymnast at Central Michigan University in 2017. In 2019 and 2020, she was named Mid-American Conference Gymnast of the Year. [6] In 2020, she ranked first in the Mid-American Conference and 18th nationally with an all-around score of 39.355. [5] [7]
Pedrick won the level 10 all-around at the Canadian Nationals in May 2017, leading to an invitation to a Team Canada tryout. [8] She was selected to compete at the 2017 Summer Universiade in Taipei City, where she won team silver [9] - Canada's first ever team gymnastics medal at the competition. She placed 11th on beam and 15th on floor exercise, but did not vault due to an ankle injury. [8] Her teammates were Jessica Dowling, Briannah Tsang, and Olympians Ellie Black and Brittany Rodgers.

At the 2019 Summer Universiade in Naples, Pedrick finished seventh all-around, which was the highest finish for any North American. [11] The Canadian team - Pedrick, Jessica Dowling, and Alana Fischer - finished fourth. [12] [13]

At the 2022 Canadian Championships, Pedrick was first on vault and second all-around and on floor. At DTB Pokal in Stuttgart, she won vault gold. [15] At the 2022 World Championships in Liverpool, Pedrick contributed to the team's bronze medal finish - a first ever medal for Canada, which also qualified a Canadian team to the 2024 Summer Olympics.
