Women's STUNT is a new varsity sport derived from cheerleading and launched by USA Cheer. In its eighth season at the college level, STUNT has become one of the fastest growing female sport in the country. It takes the athletic skills of cheerleading, such as jumps, stunts and tumbling and creates a game format where teams go head-to-head against each other. 28 teams competed in the 2018 season. 

The STUNT All Americans were selected by a committee of coaches from various regions along with several STUNT officials. Nominees for All American are athletes who exhibited superior skills and techniques, good game sense and knowledge of STUNT. They also needed to have participated in at least half of the games or tournaments for at least 50 percent of the routines.
