Abigail Engelhardt '24 Recruiting Profile

My name is Abigail Engelhardt, affectionately known as Tink at cheer.  I have been cheering competitively since I was six years old and the first time I stepped foot on the competition mat, it felt like home to me.  As I learned more about college cheerleading, I have aspired to continue my growth and compete at the collegiate level.

My main position is a Flyer who can stunt Coed and All Girl, but I can also brace and tumble.  I am a passionate, coachable athlete that puts 100% into learning new skills and being a positive influence on my teammates.

I have competed at many national competitions, some of my greatest accomplishments is winning UCA all-star nationals 3 years in a row and being a 2022 Cheerleading Worlds Bronze medalist.

Each year bring new opportunities and I am so excited and passionate about this ever-changing sport!  I enjoy mentoring younger athletes as well as my teammates to help everyone grow and become outstanding team players on and off the mat.

I envision my college years to be a personal growth period both academically and athletically.  My goal is to explore a Criminal Justice major that will position me well for my future career path. 

I am a well-rounded athlete and would make a perspective college and team very proud. I am looking forward to collaborating and working hard with my coaches and teammates.
