With a blend of seasoned veterans and fresh faces, the team sets its sights on a season filled with passion, dedication, and unwavering school spirit.

“With 22 members, including nine new additions, we are thrilled to kick off the 2023-2024 school year,” Stafford shared. “Our journey began with tryouts in March, and since our first team practice on May 1st, we’ve been hard at work. Our summer included ECC camp victories, including Camp Champs, Best Stunt group and Best Pyramid. We eagerly anticipate competition season and the exhilaration of supporting our teams from the sidelines, especially during football games under the lights.”

Maddy Bilby, a rising star among the underclassmen, promises to leave an indelible mark with her talent, enthusiasm and dedication to the team’s success. Grace Mckee stands as the unsung hero, making significant contributions to the team’s dynamics and success without seeking recognition. Her selflessness and commitment shine through her actions both on and off the mat.
