End of an Era
By: Ally Fleischer
On Sunday, April 9th, the Madison High School Cheerleaders attended their last competition of the 2017 season in Erie, PA. This is the first time they have even competed in this competition called the Lake Erie Nationals. The winners of each division get Champion Cheer Central bookbags, and the overall Grand Champions win jackets. Since this was the last ever competition for nearly half the team, they were all prepared to go all out for the win.
Hoping to get Grand Champions for the fourth time in the row and win the jackets, each practice the girls had they went over every single routine one by one critiquing every little thing, practicing jumps and trying to keep their energy up. Their hard work definitely showed when they took the floor, confidently. Their biggest competitor was the Eastlake North Cheer team, even though the MHS girls have beat North at every competition they are still a hard team to go against.
“This weekend we did the best we had done the entire season. We went out there and performed like no other. We left everything on the floor, showed up North which led us to first place. It is sad to leave such a fun and incredible team behind but we ended a great note!” said Shyan Christian.
The cheerleaders are very proud of themselves for having such a great season and ending with a win. They won their division and the bookbags, but were sadly .7 away from being Grand Champions. Next year they will be working even harder to win those National jackets!
