Hinds Cheerleaders Shine at UCA College Camp with Top Honors

RAYMOND, Miss. - The Hinds Community College Raymond Cheer team soared to impressive heights at the 2025 UCA College Camp held at the University of Alabama, bringing home multiple top honors and setting a new standard for excellence in their division.

Competing in the Small Coed division, Hinds faced tough competition from respected programs including Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, Nicholls State University, Wallace State College, Florida Gulf Coast University, and Southern Union State College. Despite the formidable field, the Hinds squad delivered standout performances in both the Sideline and Gameday Timeout routines, securing 1st place in each individual category — as well as the 1st Place Overall Gameday Routine award, which combines both routines.

In addition to their dominance in the Gameday category, Hinds also competed in the highly competitive Fight Song Competition, going head-to-head with nine other schools, including Division I programs like Louisiana Tech University and Florida International University South. The Hinds cheerleaders finished with an impressive 2nd place overall, once again proving their ability to stand out among a diverse and talented field.

The team was honored with the Collegiate Recognition Award, a prestigious accolade given to the team that best exemplifies their university's spirit, leadership, and sportsmanship. This award is especially meaningful as it is voted on by UCA staff based on their observations throughout the week, and reflects not only technical skill but also professionalism and team character.

Rounding out an outstanding week, the Hinds mascot, Ellie the Eagle, also participated in extensive mascot training. Her efforts earned her the Superior Mascot Award, a recognition of performance, creativity, and spirit.

The full list of awards earned by the Hinds cheer team includes:

  • 1st Place Overall Game Day Routine

  • 1st Place Sideline

  • 1st Place Game Day Timeout Routine

  • 2nd Place Fight Song Competition

  • Collegiate Recognition Award

With this remarkable showing at UCA College Camp, the Hinds Cheerleaders have not only made their college proud but have also established themselves as a leading force in collegiate cheer.Hinds will now switch gears and prepare for the 2025 Hinds football season.
