Hi! I’m Celeste Marchant, a junior Sociology major & non profit leadership minor from Charleston, SC. I cheered on the club team last semester, but sadly Daytona was cancelled, so i’m very excited to get to hopefully compete this season! I cheered for the varsity team at First Baptist High school for 7 years, and did sideline cheer before that as well. I am a backspot, & stunting is one of my favorite things! I love club cheer & am so grateful for the opportunity to continue doing what I love in college with a great group of girls.

I’m Sarah and I'm an architecture major from Billerica, Massachusetts. I’ve been cheering almost my whole life and I love being a part of Clemson Club Cheer. The best cheer memories I have were the team bonding, pre-comp rituals, and competing in general so I'm glad Clemson Club Cheer allows me to continue doing that. I’m super excited to continue making great cheer memories and to compete at NCA Nationals in Daytona again!
