I must say that the 14th Region cheerleaders in all divisions looked much better this year. Some squads had really improved. However, I must say that watching the competition, I totally disagreed with the Hazard win over Powell. Hazard had a little more difficulty, but overall performance I think Powell looked awesome. I feel that the judges tend to forget that quality of what's performed should always outweigh quantity. Just my opinion. I do think Hazard performed well but felt they looked sloppy in several areas, had a full twist that planted on her face, and was very wobbly in stunting. Powell had no major falls or bobbles and were fantastic on motions, facials, and jumps... Tumbling seems to be increasing with this squad also...I know they are continuing to build..
Good Job and congrats to all who are headed to State!!
