The William Floyd High School cheer team has secured a spot in the National High School Cheerleading Championship (NHSCC) following their fourth-place finish at the UCA competition. The championship will take place in Orlando, Florida, this coming February.
Junior Lizzie Marino from WFHS was recognized as a top-50 cheer student-athlete by Newsday.
The Colonials traveled to Iona University for their first appearance at the UCA regional competition, where they delivered an impressive routine in the medium varsity division. This performance earned them their inaugural bid to the NHSCC.
Lizzie Marino was highlighted by Newsday for her exceptional skills. "The elite tumbler executes standing skills such as a toe-touch full and running skills including an Arabian through to full," stated Newsday. "Marino is also a flyer with stunts including rewinds, hand in hands, switch up full ups, and high-to-high full arounds."
Congratulations were extended to the student-athletes and their coaches, head coach Jessica Alvi and assistant coach Christina Molnar, for these achievements.
