The stranglehold Mill Valley and St. Thomas Aquinas have on state cheerleading titles continued at the 2025 Gameday Cheer Showcase, held Nov. 22 at Stormont Vail Events Center.
Mill Valley captured the Class 6A crown for the fourth straight year. Not to be outdone, St. Thomas Aquinas also won its fourth straight title in Class 5A.
Paola was the only other school to repeat as champion in its classification, bringing home a second straight Class 4A crown. Norton (3A), Cair Paravel (2A) and Bucklin (1A) were new champions in their respective classes this year
