Madelyn Lisk
School: Greenfield-Central
Grade: 11th
Position: Base
Favorite stunt: A switch lib to a heel stretch, because as a base I can feel exactly what I need to do to fix our stunt.
Favorite cheerleading competition, so far: Our camp competition, because there wasn’t the stress of winning. It was really just to get a feel for the mats. Plus, every team cheered for each other, which was very fun.
Individual cheer goals: I would really like to work on consistency of tumbling.
Favorite aspect of cheerleading: I love my team and the fun times we have together almost as much as competing and cheering at games.
Team cheer goals: I really want to place well at state.
Other extracurricular activities: I love swimming, but I am not yet a part of our school’s swim team because I enjoy spending my time at cheerleading.
Most challenging aspect of cheerleading: For me, the most challenging part of cheerleading is having the confidence to tumble.
Most painful cheer injury: I have constant shin splints that kill me.
