We decided to enter into the Tumbling division because we have some awesome senior leaders to help with our tumbling skills.

The cheerleaders participated at the state cheer competition on Saturday February 22. We were able to bring home 2nd place in our division. We are so proud of the hard work and dedication of our ladies to our goal of participating in state this year. You ladies were amazing!
