Outlaws cheer squad posts a perfect 10

The Outlaws Cheer and Stunt Squad took home their first team win for the 2019-2020 competition season last weekend at the Sweet Home Cheer Classic.

The team fought hard and earned the first-place plaque in the 4A division.

Stunting, dancing and cheering their hearts out, the girls scored a perfect 10 for their cheer and received high marks in dancing and tumbling. A highlight of the girls’ routine was their elite stunt sequence.

The girls performed in two stunt groups with the elites performing a new, more advanced stunt routine.

At each event, the team is scored on jumps, dance, a cheer routine, stunting and tumbling along with the difficulty and execution of skills performed.

The Sweet Home Classic, the first event of the season for many teams, presents the challenge of not knowing their competition. Participating in this event can be both exhilarating and nerve-wracking for teams.

The girls’ strong start to their competition season has placed them one step closer to competing at the state level. The Outlaws cheerleaders will be competing four more times to earn a place at state.

Their next competition will be on January 4 at Cottage Grove High School.
