Lily - the Sparkle Award
This was Lily’s second year as a gemstone. We saw so much growth from her during the first year and were excited to see her build on those skills.
This athlete continued to knock off new tumbling skills and stunt skills, all while working hard to improve jump height and dance motions, performing with great facials and sass.
Every year our athletes embody the traits of what our cheer program stands for: hard work, commitment to the sport and team, cheering for other cheer programs during competition, and being an ambassador for our school. Lily does all these things!
The love Lily has for this sport shines through in everything she does. We are so proud to recognize Lily with the Sparkle Award. Congratulations Lily!

Laurel - Best Jumps
Laurel has been a Diamond for her three years of HMMS, and is an athlete who has all the skills for the sport. Her love for this sport shines through in everything she does.
She gives her all while performing, ensuring each motion and skill is executed beautifully.
From flying to basing, there was no skill that Laurel couldn’t conquer.
“We can do this” was the approach from Laurel for new stunt skills, new tumbling skills and right before full out runs, mat talking her teammates from start to finish, encouraging them to do their best.
Laurel has always had really nice height and technique in jumps, but this year saw her really attack these, achieving over extended toe touches.
We are so proud to recognize Laurel with the Best Jumps for this year. Congratulations Laurel!

Alexa - Most Valuable Player
Alexa was a Diamond all three years of her middle school years, chosen by her team as Miss Congeniality the last two years.
This athlete is a hard worker, 100% dedicated to the sport, the team and herself, giving her absolute best to every skill needed in cheer.
There isn’t a skill that Alexa can’t do! She approaches all skills with the approach that I got this, but she also brings along her team with that same approach.
She inspires her team to do their absolute best and is always encouraging her fellow athletes.
We saw Alexa achieve so many tumbling skills executing each skill with technique and grace.
She applies this same work ethic to her jumps and dance.
She performs with grace and sass, executing each skill with confidence and a smile, allowing her love for this sport to shine through.
We are so proud to recognize Alexa as the Most Valuable Player for the year.
Congratulations Alexa!

Zoey - Best Back Spot
Although Zoey was a new member to our program, she came to us with prior cheer experience.
She is the type of athlete who leads by example, always encouraging her teammates and inspiring them to do their best, and giving 100% during practices and competitions.
Zoey is able to connect instantly with people, engaging them with her openness and friendliness. The flyer that ended up in Zoey’s group had been decided at tryouts - this flyer just knew that Zoey had her as the back spot, and placed all her trust in Zoey and the skill she brought as a back.
Every practice saw this stunt group work incredibly hard at nailing every stunt in our routine, with Zoey driving the group with “we got this”.
During the first night of tryouts, Zoey immediately fit into our family and exemplified what our cheer program stands for.
We are so proud to recognize Zoey as the best back spot this year. Congratulations Zoey.

Yeva - Poppin Personality
Yeva was a returning gemstone this year, bringing once again the confidence and drive that make her an incredible athlete.
Last season saw Yeva target new tumbling skills, and she continued that trend by adding more skills to her resume. She is the type of athlete who sets a goal and goes after it.
Yeva can execute on any stunt position and spent this season both backing and flying , hitting beautiful stretches in the air.
While performing, Yeva brings technique, grace, sass, and confidence to the floor, drawing the spectator eyes immediately. You can see her personality through each performance.
We are so proud to recognize Yeva with the Poppin’ Personality award this year.
Congratulations Yeva!

Ryan - Fiery Cheerleader
Ryan was a returning Diamond this season. When we ended last year, we were able to highlight a batch of tumbling skills that Ryan had achieved, and she continued to knock off more tumbling skills this season.
Her hard work, natural skill, a willingness to take on whatever role is needed really allows Ryan to excel. She can take on any stunt position and very quickly achieve the skills in the routine.
She is a trusted teammate, inspiring confidence to her fellow athletes with her attitude of we’ve got this, and the work she puts in to ensure each stunt skill will hit.
Ryan always has a smile on her face, and is an athlete to watch on the competition floor. Her natural grace, sassy facials, and her technique when jumping, tumbling, stunting and dancing allows her to really shine.
We are so proud to recognize Ryan as the Fiery Cheerleader for this year. Congratulations Ryan.

Stella - Cheerleader of the Year
Stella was a Diamond for her three years of middle school. She came to us with years of dance experience, allowing her to really perform with great facials and grace.
She is the type of athlete who would quietly set a goal and then go to work on achieving that goal. In tumbling, we saw Stella work through cartwheels, roundoffs, backbends, backbend kickover and ultimately back walkovers (there were tears - such an incredible moment!!)
In stunting, we saw Stella front base, fly and main base, bringing confidence into every skill.
We are so proud of everything that Stella achieved and are pleased to name her the Cheerleader of the Year. Congratulations Stella 💙💙
