Allen cheerleading competed in the highly anticipated Region 6 Cheerleading Competition at Newton High School on Sunday, March 16, 2025. The event brought together 10 talented squads from across the region, showcasing their skills, dedication, and team spirit.
In a thrilling performance, Allen secured a remarkable second-place finish, marking a significant achievement in their competitive journey. This was the team?s first time competing in this particular scoring category, and their performance impressed both judges and spectators across the board. The event also marked a return to the Region 6 competition after a few years' absence, adding an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to the day.
The team?s impressive finish was even more notable given the circumstances. Nearly half of the squad joined this semester, and despite the short preparation time, they worked tirelessly to fine-tune their routines. Their dedication, perseverance, and ability to come together as a cohesive unit were evident in their routine.
?Our team showed incredible growth and resilience,? Coach Black said. ?It was a true testament to their hard work and commitment. I couldn?t be prouder of how they performed, especially considering that many of the athletes are new this semester and we learned this routine in just over a month. The fact that they finished second in such a competitive field speaks volumes about their talent and determination.?
Building on their success at the Region 6 Cheerleading Competition, the team is excited to use this momentum to attract new talent and continue rebuilding the program. With a strong second-place finish and a renewed sense of camaraderie and pride, the squad is eager to bring in fresh recruits who are passionate about cheerleading and ready to be part of a growing and dedicated team.
