The Fresno State Cheer team is not just a pile of pompoms, skirts and eyelashes, but a hardworking, dedicated and committed team, just like other student-athletes.
Right now, the cheer team is plugging in new teammates as they improve and prepare for this season’s games, events and competitions.
At the top of the pyramid, head coach Emmi Jennings is calling the shots. Right under her are assistant coaches and alumni Jocelyn Estrada and Luis Sepulveda.
Coaching for six seasons, Jennings looks for cheerleaders who have heart, dedication and can commit to the team.
“It is mind over matter, how hard you want to work to get that certain skill,” Jennings said.
