Aaliyah Blakeney '26 Recruiting Profile

As a little girl I didn't do much of the cheering thing until I happened to get to the eight grade. Cheering was something I liked to watch but thought I couldn't be as best as all the girls were on television. Once I happened to tryout for my middle school team I realized I actually had potential and that I could actually be good. Yes, I did start off late but I am a great cheerleader. As a cheerleader for your team I will not only show leadership and commitment but I will also show how best I can be, how responsible and how I will be a team player. I can be shy to start off but once I warm up I have the brightest personality. As a cheerleader I not only focus on cheering but I also stay ahead on my grades. I am not only a cheerleader but I also play softball in the spring. Cheering really inspires me to do bigger things, and I never knew getting into cheering in middle school would actually bring me this far but I am really excited for a new journey.
