And after that Laken got to school, and she was as nervous as we all were. Then we all talked and laughed about how crazy the dance was that we had to do. And then we all got dismissed to go outside. While we were outside we practiced our dance and stuff to see if we knew it all and if the other person needs help on what they were doing wrong.

I also wanted to play a sport this year, but I didn't think it would be basketball. It was so loud it sounded like someone was yelling in my ear and playing music at the same time. We started doing lay-up drills, I missed so many compared to the other girls.…

    It all started in third grade when my parents got an email asking if I wanted to do traveling softball.

Competitive cheer fills the guidelines of obtaining physical activity and a competitive nature against other teams but NCAA still ruled it out.
