LEXINGTON, Ky. — Seven members of the University of Kentucky STUNT team were named All-Americans by the College STUNT Coaches Association, recognizing their excellence in a sport that has gained significant momentum on the national stage. The announcement came on June 21 from UK Athletics.

Alyssa Arkava, Addison Crawford, Isabella Doria, Isabella Franzella, Emma Green and Mackenzie Secrest earned first-team All-American honors. Arkava, a junior from Brentwood, Tennessee, captured the award for the third consecutive season, while Doria, a junior from Brentwood, California, also earned first-team honors for the third straight year. Franzella, a junior from San Mateo, California, received her second first-team selection after earning second-team status in 2024. Crawford and Secrest, both sophomores, earned their first All-American honors, as did Green, a Lexington junior who was named honorable mention All-American the previous year. Zoe Dix, also a junior from Brentwood, California, was named second-team All-American, marking her first All-American recognition.

To qualify for All-American honors, athletes must participate in at least three-quarters of competition and appear in at least 50 percent of games played while serving as a vital component of their team’s success.

The Wildcats concluded their fifth varsity season with a school-record 31 wins and finished as the Division I national runner-up for the fourth consecutive year, according to UK Athletics. California Baptist won the 2026 Division I title, edging Kentucky in a competitive matchup.

The strong showing reflects Kentucky’s growth in STUNT, which recently earned NCAA championship status. The sport, which transforms traditional cheerleading skills into a head-to-head, four-quarter format emphasizing athleticism and precision, has become one of the fastest-growing opportunities for women’s college athletes.
