The cheer team poses with their recently won trophy. The team ended 2nd out of 56 teams in the Medium varsity D1 division. Knowing the next season we have to take everything to the next level with perfecting our routine, and coming together as a team to achieve the end goal of bringing home a National title is the goal in mind, junior Kaylie Scott said.

The cheer team had their Louisville Invitational Tournament (LIT) competition at Valley Traditional High School on Jan. 22. “The girls and I have been working extremely hard to stay consistent with our stunts and tumbling, this close to leaving (for Nationals).

The dance team gathers before a performance, hoping for the best outcome for their hard work. The girls have practiced hard all season and are continuing to improve with every step and every fall. “Just getting out there and making a name for the team is motivation…the team isnt very represented so I think its nice to make a good name for the team and show people what we do, thats motivating,” senior dancer Katelyn Powers said.
