The freshman cheer team from Smithson Valley High School won the NCA Senior and Junior High School National Championship title for intermediate junior varsity/freshman in Dallas on Feb. 1-2.
“This group has always stayed positive, worked hard and never gave up on each other,” SVHS freshman team coach Darla Docekal said in a press release. “They remained diligent and fought for a perfect final performance.”
During the weekend competition, each team performed the same routine twice—once on Saturday and again on Sunday. The composite scores from both performances make up a team’s final score.
After Saturday, the 14-member freshman SVHS team was in last place and the varsity team was in fifth place.
