[cheerleader-13]

No disrespect cheerdad, but it would be unbelievably hard to have 17 POINTS worth of deductions on the KAPOS scoresheet!! This would definitely mean you have a coach who doesn't know how to coach, and I'm sure that's not the case. Some of the major deductions they had would have been the 2 falls, and minor bobbles. They had NO illegal stunts. KCC did do a good job, but it was sloppy. They did have a cute routine and some difficulty, but when it is performed sloppy, it reflects on the scores. Their appearance was a personal turn-off with the cut-out shoulder.
I was only at this competition as a specator, but I have been judging KAPOS for 18 years, and Powell was definitely the team of the day, in my opinion even above the 2 1/2 minutes. Their routine was executed wonderfully. They had great choreography also. I must say also, that they had good sportsmanship for EVERY team, not just because they wanted JIHS to win over Estill. I watched them cheer on every team that hit the floor.
Estill had a very clean routine also, but they just didn't "pop" like they have in the past....Their pike baskets were beautiful. I did feel JIHS had a routine with much better and more interesting choreography but needed to clean & sharpen up a lot. Their tumbling skills and baskets were great. I feel that Estill's win over JIHS was just in the execution department, but not on choreography.
I love cheerleading and have been a part of the KAPOS world for many years. I have no preference over any team. These are just my opinions based on what I saw last Sunday.
I thought every team did a great job just coming to compete. This takes a lot of hard work and effort. I would like to see fewer divisions and more competition. I do think it has become a pathetic excuse for some coaches to throw routines together and put their teams in empty divisions just so they can go to state. Just my thoughts. Great job EVERYONE!! You will represent 14th region well at State.

yeah, kapos-14 region. its done and over with. but, i would have like to seen powell county go out there, with changed mounts, because theirs was illegal. whose mounts was legal during in game at wymt. i would also, like to see one of their best flyers get sick. the flyer who was sick, has her standing handtuck, and has one of the best full downs. as soon as competition was over with, she was took to the hospital, to have her gaul bladder took out.
