CMW Cheerleaders go to State Finals!

Well, here's the long-overdue update on the girls' competition: they placed second at States! Being as it was Coach Ali's last competition with the squad, all the girls felt a tremendous amount of pressure to perform well for her. They basically just left it all out there, not holding anything back. It was a fantastic performance, among a competition full of fantastic performances, so it was a thrill for all of us to see them do so well! Congratulations to all the girls and the coaches, with a special THANKS, again, to Coach Ali.

On a disappointing note, there was a team there who, before the results were announced, were bragging that they were so good they were going to win first and second place. They were not pleased when they finished fourth, and felt that CMW must have paid the judges. Good grief. Competition definitely has it's ugly side.
