This past weekend, the Holy Cross Cheerleaders traveled to Lake Charles to compete in the LHSAA State competition. The team competed as a small co-ed varsity team against other schools such as Rummel, Vandebilt Catholic, Slidell, Zachary, and Shaw. This contest was Holy Cross’ stiffest competition yet and would determine who received a bid to Nationals in January.
With one cheerleader out with a concussion and fever and another with a bad injury from competition warm-ups (minutes before performance time), the team quickly re-worked their entire routine in the Civic Center’s parking lot so they would be able to still compete and do their best. The Tigers proved to everyone that no matter what comes their way, they will battle and fight to the finish as the team performed a near flawless routine and placed 2nd overall. Archbishop Shaw placed 1st and Zachary High School placed 3rd. Congratulations to the HC Cheerleading team as they also received a bid to Nationals in Dallas, TX this January! Go Tigers!
Today is Friday. Have a great weekend!
