Cleveland Cavaliers Recognize Marquitta Billingsley, Collinwood Senior

Marquitta Billingsley, joined by "Hype Man" Ahmaad Crump, Moon Dog, and the Chick-fil-A mascot, is honored as the Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star Kid for March.

Each month, The Cleveland Cavaliers All Star Kids program teams up with Chick-fil-A to recognize students who are setting a positive example for their peers.  Cavaliers’ mascots, “Hype Man” Ahmaad Crump, and Chick-fil-A’s “Cow” will make a surprise visit to each winning student’s school to present him/her with a super-sized ticket to a Cavaliers’ home game and a catered Chick-fil-A party for the entire class!  In addition to receiving (4) tickets to a game, the winning student will also receive (4) complimentary passes to the VIP Club and will be recognized on-court prior to the game.

Marquitta Billingsley, an outstanding 12th grade student at Collinwood High School, was nominated by her guidance counselor for the Cleveland Cavaliers All Star Kids.  As a result of Marquitta’s hard work and commitment to her education, she was selected as the winner for the month of March.   “Hype Man” Ahmaad Crump and the mascots surprised Marquitta on Monday, March 23, 2015.  It was an amazing experience for Marquitta and her classmates.  Marquitta will be attending the Cavalier’s home game on Sunday, March 29, 2015.  The staff, at Collinwood High School, are all so proud of her.
