WE WON THE 1ST STATE AA CHEER COMPETITION this past weekend!!! The girls preformance was awesome. The pyramids stuck, alignments were right on and energy level was high for the whole routine.
This year there were 5 AA teams for the first season. Yankton and Brookings had good solid teams. The LYNX improved throughout the season and finished winning the ESD and State title. Wow, what a year for the 22 + girls on the team.
Coach Gilberts worked the girls hard since the beginning of August. She did a good job of motivating , having them stay focused on the goal and minimizing injures. She has to be proud of her team!!
Finally, the icing to the cake came when the girls were invited to preform at halftime of the AA football game in Vermillion on Saturday night. They did a great job especially since they had been going since 9 AM that morning.
I know us parents are proud of you girls. We had 5 or 6 good seniors who will be missed next season. Good Luck to you Seniors. But, remember to come back to cheer on next year’s team as they via for a REPEAT

Just a note from a parent of a former BV cheerleader. (class of 2000- my how time flies…)
Anyway, I am not sure if anyone realizes, other than those actually involved, just how hard these cheer squads work!!
I totally enjoyed the competitions!!
Great job!!!!
