2018 NCHSAA Cheerleading Invitational

The 2018 NCHSAA Cheerleading Invitational wrapped up a full day of competition featuring 129 cheerleading squads across all divisions at the Raleigh Convention Center. The Northwest Guilford Vikings took their first Carolina Cup with top overall honors in the 16th Invitational in the history of the NCHSAA. 

The NCHSAA awards four $500 scholarships annually, one to a cheerleader in each of the NCHSAA’s four classifications. To qualify, recipient must be a college-bound senior varsity cheerleader at an NCHSAA member school. Recipients must be on a participating team at the NCHSAA Cheerleading Invitational for that year and be planning to enroll in an accredited institution of higher education in the year following graduation. Applicants must be well-rounded individuals demonstrating excellence in Cheerleading with outstanding presence of school spirit, community service involvement and academics with a minimum average GPA of 3.0 throughout the student’s high school career.

The 1A scholarship winner is Carolyn Baylee Haynes a senior at West Columbus High School who plans on attending Clemson University in the Fall of 2019. Baylee has been chosen as an All-American Cheerleader for three years and is also a member of the tennis team. She is involved in several community service endeavors, including Operation Christmas Child, volunteering at soup kitchens, and raising money for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. She does all this while maintaining a 4.0 unweighted GPA.
