Two WCS Cheerleaders Selected to TN All-State Cheer Squad

Published September 3, 2015

Ravenwood seniors Kylie Betchley and Becca Zaves have been named to the 2015-2016 Tennessee Cheerleading Coaches Association (TCCA) All-State cheerleading squad. They will join an elite group of 18 athletes receiving this honor.

“The team is extremely proud of Kylie and Becca for this accomplishment,” said Varsity Cheer Coach Cady Conley. “Ravenwood Cheer wants to be a model of both leadership and talent. This recognition of our senior captains as All-State squad members shows our dedication to excellence both on and off the sideline.”

To be selected for the Tennessee All-State squad, athletes are judged primarily on cheer and dance skills. Other considerations for selection is dedication to excellence in academics and commitment to community service.

A coach’s recommendation, an essay and an in-person interview round out the selection process.

“Being named as an All-State Cheerleader is such an honoring title,” said Kylie. “As my cheerleading career is coming to an end, accomplishing this goal of being part of the All-State team is something I have looked forward to.”

Becca couldn’t agree more with her teammate.

“Being on the All-State team really means a lot to me,” said Becca. “It is an honor to be chosen out of all the cheerleaders in the state to represent Tennessee, Williamson County and Ravenwood High School.”

The squad will cheer at the East/West All-State Football game on December 11.
