Baltimore Cheerleading Results

Kellie and Tracy just arrived home from a 13 hour day in Baltimore for the 2-day cheer event at the Baltimore Convention Center. The protocol for such an event dictates that you stay until the awards are made. In this case, awards were handed out at 10:00PM on a Sunday night. Add the travel time, and Kellie arrived here last night at midnight. If that's not bad enough, there were teams from Pennsylvania and Florida in attendance, so maybe we didn't have it too bad. Kellie even made it to school today.

The Cheer Dynasty Kings earned 2nd place in their division. That is a worthy position, but not what they expected. Nonetheless, Kellie and here teammates can hold their heads high. They made a good run at the title, but just came up a little short. It's clear from the reactions of the coaches and other teammates that they take these events very seriously.

Kellie put in two grueling days and managed to come out with a smile. The biggest event of the year (Atlanta, GA) is in two weeks.
