Cheer: Regional Competition

The One that Counts

By: Allyson Fleischer

This past weekend the Madison High School Cheerleaders traveled to Alliance, Ohio to participate in the yearly Regionals competition. In this competition the teams don't compete for first, second, or third place, they compete for a title to go to States. Many teams partake in this competition, in many different divisions. Our cheerleaders competed against five other teams, one of which beat them last year at States which pushed them even harder to come out on top and qualify to States.

Out of the five teams in their division they were one of the three to qualify. Being one of the most important competitions out of the season to compete in, these girls worked very hard to make their performance the best it could be. Making it to States is something very special to these competitive cheerleaders, especially to this year's seniors who make up most of the squad.

This year's States competition will take place in March, at Worthington High School. It may be a far drive but take a trip down this year to cheer on the girls who are always cheering on every extracurricular activity.  If you see any of our MHS competition cheerleaders in the hallway make sure to congratulate them for making it to States, and wish them luck on their encounter at States and hopefully they will be bringing the first place trophy back home!
