75th Hunger Games
Cecelia was reaped to be the female tribute for the third Quarter Quell. She must tear off her three children who refused to let it leave  at this time. Katniss remembered later in the game <span class="systran_token_word" id="token_3" style="" value="5c5d/conj"> that Cecelia's three children were studded with her skirts whereas she was took <span class="systran_token_word" id="token_0" style="" value="*">along <span class="systran_token_punctuation" id="token_18" style="">. Effie Trinket expressed dismay and commented "Oh, not Cecelia" when she was reaped for the third Quarter Quell.

Training
In training, it is revealed that her fellow tribute from District 8, Woof, stayed fairly close to her. They eventually invited Katniss to the bug station, who tried asking them about the uprising in District 8, but changed her mind at the last second. Her motherly instincts caused Katniss to want to become her ally. She received a score of 9, for her skills in throwing knives.

Death
Cecelia was killed in the initial Cornucopia bloodbath. She was stationed on the pedestal next to the District 9 male. She arrived shortly after Katniss and Finnick had left to go get Peeta. She grabbed a sword and found Enobaria inside the cornucopia. She swung her sword at Enobaria's head but she ducked swiftly. Enobaria quickly grabbed the back of Cecelia's head and threw her into a crate. Enobaria grabbed the sword and stabbed Cecelia in the leg; she tried to do it again but Cecelia ripped the sword away. Enobaria slapped Cecelia across the face, but Cecelia punched and kicked Enobaria brutally, as did Enobaria to Cecelia. Cecelia fought with Enobaria over the sword, until Enobaria stabbed the sword into her chest, killing her. She placed 18th in the games.
