Frustration at Girard

After a great warm up, the Knockouts fell a bit short on the floor.

All though the girls scored well over 15 points higher than the first place team, 23 points in deductions took the Knockouts down into second place.

The judges loved our routine and were pleased with the girls keeping up the energy even with the stunt falls.

I would like to single out a few girls for their extra effort this weekend:

Erin - even with a fever of over 101 Erin went out on the floor and gave it her all!

Grace - on Thursday Grace was asked to step into Lindsey's stunts (Lindsey has an injured wrist and hip). Grace stepped in fearlessly and did a great job!

Caitylnn - before two weeks ago Caitlynn had never cheered. Due to a team members academic suspension WPIAL gymnast Caitlynn agreed to join the team and take over the open spot. In 4 short team practices and two open gyms Caitlynn learned how to be a cheerleader as well as learn the 2:30min. routine. Caitlynn, you did awesome out there on Saturday!


The key to keeping stunts in the air...
having all team members at all practices.
