Placing in a Happy 4th

April 2, 2015

As you may know, the North Arlington Competition Cheer girls earned their spot to compete for Nationals in Florida. The 85 degree weather was perfect for practicing and improving their routines. The girls were able to practice in the football area of the resort giving them ample space to practice their stunts on a giant turf.

The day of competition was extremely intimidating because of the other competitors’ level of performance. Nonetheless, the girls were able to place fourth out of seven. Alyssa Miller, one of the team’s cheerleaders, stated, “The other teams were amazing and we made a lot of new friends from around the country.” The Viking Saga congratulates the girls on their accomplishments. They did a terrific job this season and they had a great time in Florida. Keep up the good work girls!
