Nine Matanzas cheerleaders have been named Universal Cheerleaders Association All-Americans.
Jamielynn Rhinehart, Carina Brito, Giavana Vitale, Chloe Skoglund, Bianca Diez, Aubrei Sleep, Kenzie Lippke, Joslynn Ruiz and Ella Koehler all qualified for the All-American Team at a UCA camp this summer and have the opportunity to perform in a special event.
Four other Matanzas cheerleaders were named JV All-Americans: Madison Laureno, Gracie Simonsen, Riley Marsden and Stella Johnson.
The varsity and JV All-Americans are planning to participate in the Varsity Spirit Spectacular on Nov. 22-25 at Disney World. They will have a booth set up at Palm Coast's Town Center Concert Series 6-8 p.m. Sept. 26 to raise money for their trip. Lippke will perform "flips for tips" at the booth.
Cheerleaders at the UCA camps who are nominated can try out for All-American recognition. Those who qualify are recognized in the awards ceremony on the last day of camp and receive an All-American Team certificate and patch.
