Cheerleading with Gavin R.

Hello cheer family, I was born in Wichita, Kansas. My cheerleading roots were planted at Cheer Eclipse in Wichita. My final year, Comets competed in Senior Large Semi Limited Coed Level 5 placing 6th at 2011 Worlds. After graduating high school I found tutelage at the University of Kansas. My fourth year at KU our squad placed 4th at 2015 UCA Nationals, highest in school history. My life quickly led me to Missouri Valley College in 2016 where I completed my undergraduate studies in Exercise Science, working my way from a graduate assistant to Head Coach of a Large and Small coed team competing at NAIA nationals and NCA nationals in 2018. After three years of professionally developing my coaching abilities, MVC brought home 3 conference and regional titles, and 1 NAIA National Title. The next evolution in my cheer and academic career took me to Morehead State University. My graduate studies consisted of Wellness Promotion while athletically earning 2 UCA National Championships, 1 ICU Championship with Team USA, and a spot in the 2021 Varsity Catalog. While attending MSU, I was the Director of Tumbling for Madison Central High, we brought home the triple crown in Small Varsity Division 1 All Girl, Conference, Regionals, and 2021 UCA Nationals - “Don’t react, Recover!” My passion for competitive cheer has led me to cultivating a certain skillset to physically develop and mentally connect with athletes and open the door to their goals as quickly and safely as possible while reminding them, the journey is bigger than the destination - you get what you are, not what you want.
