Bella Pearce, a senior at Patoka High School, will begin her next chapter in the Fall of 2026 at Greenville University, where she plans to major in Elementary Education.

Bella will attend GU on a Cheer Scholarship and will join the university’s STUNT program—a new women’s sport that highlights the athleticism and technical skill of cheer. STUNT features head-to-head routines between teams, showcasing precise, skills-based performances across multiple categories.

We are proud of Bella and excited to see all she will accomplish at Greenville University!

Pictured with Bella are her parents, Lora Lee and Dale Pearce; Patoka High School cheer coach, Mrs. Crystal Denson; and Greenville University representatives Stephanie Brant, Director of Spirit Programs, and Abigail Webster, Assistant Cheer Coach.
