Cheerleaders rack up awards at UCA camp

The Warren County High School varsity cheerleaders recently returned home from attending the Universal Cheerleading Association camp at MTSU with a wealth of awards.

While at the camp, the group competed in and won the Hom Pom category. The four-day camp concluded with awards on Friday, where the group received a Superior Squad trophy, first in “Xtreme Routine,” and second in cheer. The squad received Top Squad honors, beating out their closest competition from Moutain Brook (Ala.) High School from the Birmingham area.

Senior Abby HIldreth also brought home All-Star honors, and the squad received recognition with a Spirit Stick and “Top Banana,” a new award designed to spotlight squads with exceptional spirit and teamwork.

The team is now preparing for football season, as well as its first competition in September.
