Makayla Lady signs with cheer for 2015-16 season

MILLIGAN COLLEGE, Tenn. (March 30, 2015) – Sullivan East High School's Makayla Lady has signed with the Milligan College cheerleading team for the 2015-16 season.

Lady, a native of Bluff City, Tennessee, has been cheering for as long as she can remember. Throughout her cheer career, she was named an All-American cheerleader five times and was captain of the Patriots cheer team. Along with a successful high school career, Lady will be joining the UCA staff for the summer to mentor aspiring cheerleaders.

"I chose Milligan because it is a small Christian college that is close to my home where I can make new Godly friends while growing closer to God," noted Lady. "I have always wanted to come here since I started going to Milligan basketball games with my dad."

Not only is Lady a strong presence in the cheer community, but she has a strong presence in the school and church community as well. Lady is on track to graduate with a 4.0 grade-point average and is currently her senior class president.  She also leads worship at her local church.
