Cheer-Olympics By Jim Loiselle- EndZone Editor - e-mail: [email protected] Coach Kerin Brown of the D14 cheer squad updated the EndZone on the D14 Cheer-Olympics held last week at practice. The D14 cheerleads participated in a weeks long spectacular Olympic-sized event during practice. Coach Kerin repots… Some events included the one mile timed fun (???) run….a longest Liberty hold and a really fun dance off where the team needed to exhibit their skills with superior facials and extreme tightness. They participated in several elimination rounds until it came down to the final four. There were also some team events included in the series.
