As a cheerleader for four years and member of the track and field team for two, Combs collected a total of eight varsity letters. She also was a four-time cheerleading captain, and recipient of the Varsity Cheer Football Leadership Award. 

While Combs has an impressive athletic background, she also held a 4.37 weighted GPA, was involved in multiple clubs with leadership positions, went through the Cambridge AICE Program, and volunteered with various groups in the community. 

Combs teaches cheer and tumbling at Marco Island Dance Academy and has been dancing her whole life. Her favorite sports to be involved in have been both cheer and dance.

“I would like to thank Coach Joy, Coach Miller, Coach Leslie, Coach Gutwerk, and Marco Island Dance Academy,” said Combs. “My whole cheer team made my three years at MIA the best I could imagine.”
