Broncho Cheer Wins Regionals, Makes History
I’ve started to think of my website as a little journal for myself, versus a place I particularly plan to share with others. I forget about it so often, then will find myself wanting to sit down and put together a post about something I want to remember. Well, our varsity cheerleaders winning Regional for the first time ever is certainly one of those things. On November 19th, 2023, our team of 15 won the Small Varsity Coed Game Day division at UCA Regionals. It was held at Hamilton Southeastern HS and we took home a score of 88.2.

We had the dark years, we had the Joe Tiller years, we gained Hope and more than once we lost hope. I’ve watched the team change hands and I’ve watched the team change uniforms.

Then, when…
