FSU All-Girl Cheerleading Squad Named World’s Best by ESPN After Record-Setting Performance
The Florida State University (FSU) All-Girl Cheerleading Squad has been named the world’s best by ESPN, following a breathtaking, record-setting performance that captivated audiences across the globe. Their standout routine, showcased at the 2025 International Cheerleading Championships in Orlando, Florida, left judges and spectators alike in awe, setting a new benchmark for excellence in the sport.
The squad’s performance was a masterclass in precision, power, and innovation. Featuring never-before-seen stunts, seamless tumbling passes, and perfectly synchronized choreography, the team pushed the boundaries of competitive cheerleading. In a moment that will be remembered in cheerleading history, the FSU squad executed a triple-layered pyramid combined with a synchronized 720-degree twisting basket toss — a feat never before performed in international competition.
ESPN analysts praised the team not only for their technical difficulty and flawless execution but also for their creativity and commanding stage presence. “What we witnessed wasn’t just a routine — it was a revolution in cheerleading,” commented ESPN commentator and former cheer coach Jenna Morales. “FSU has redefined what’s possible in this sport.”
The achievement marks a historic milestone for FSU and collegiate cheerleading programs across the country. Under the leadership of Head Coach Tara Mitchell, the All-Girl Squad has steadily risen through the national ranks, winning multiple national titles. However, this international recognition cements their legacy as a dominant force on the world stage.
“This team has worked harder than ever,” Coach Mitchell said in a post-performance interview. “From early-morning practices to late-night conditioning sessions, they’ve poured their hearts into this routine. To see them recognized at this level is incredibly rewarding.”
Social media erupted with praise following the broadcast, with millions of views and shares of the performance video within hours. Alumni, fans, and cheer enthusiasts hailed the team’s energy, athleticism, and unity.
With this historic title, the FSU All-Girl Cheerleading Squad has not only earned international acclaim but has also inspired the next generation of cheerleaders. Their record-breaking performance stands as a shining example of what can be achieved with passion, discipline, and innovation — and it has secured their place in the annals of cheerleading greatness.
