The Mount Pleasant High School Cheerleaders attended the Universal Cheerleaders Association (UCA) cheer camp at Texas A&M University in College Station from May 29-June 1.

The Cheerleaders were evaluated on three routines including game day, sideline/cheer, and the camp routine. They received Superior ribbons, the highest rating they could receive, for all three. They also received the Spirit Stick every day of camp.

Nine cheerleaders earned All-American accolades. Those selected are recognized among the top performers at camp for their athleticism, crowd-leading skills, and overall excellence. In addition to an All-American medal and certificate, they are invited to participate in events such as the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City, the London New Year’s Day Parade, the Varsity Spirit Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade in Hawaii, and Citrus Bowl Halftime Show in Orlando, just to name a few. MPHS All-Americans are Varsity cheerleaders Ava True Fite, Carly Horn, Tenley Marshall, and Adie Rosewell. JV All-Americans include Cassidy Burns, Maritza Estrada, Aubree Hawkins, Jeta Means, and Abi Verner.

Additionally, Fite and Asia Salters were chosen for the prestigious Pin it Forward award, the most special award that a staffer will give to one single camper at each camp. Campers can receive the award for something that makes them stand out from the rest including, but not limited to leadership, going above and beyond in class, great spirit, showing great passion, and kindness.

Finally, Varsity Captain, Carly Horn, won the Jump Off competition in the Freshman–Junior division.

The cheerleaders will now turn their attention to preparing for football and volleyball season. They are coached by Marissa Marr.
