The Hedley Owl cheerleaders attended McMurry University NCA cheerleading camp this summer.
Those attending were; Senior Shawna Barker, Senior Betty Cruz, Senior Jaci Copelin, Sophomore Kelby Shields, Freshman Morgan Wood, Freshman Kailee Burton, Freshman Alex Sharp, Freshman Marlee Shields, and Senior Katie Gregory as the Owl Mascot.
The girls received superior cheer squad awards on all their cheers and chants. The girls also had three girls nominated for the All American Cheer Squad. Betty Cruz was nominated for her outstanding leadership skills, Jaci Copelin was nominated for outstanding jumps, and Alex Sharp was nominated for dance.
During tryouts, Copelin was chosen to the All American Cheerleading squad and is eligible to attend the Rose Bowl in Hawaii or the Orange Bowl in Florida and cheer with other young ladies across the country.
Mascot Katie Gregory was also nominated as an All-American Mascot and received a trophy as the most improved mascot of the camp and was chosen to the All-American Mascot squad for her character Ollie the Owl.
Cheerleading sponsor Cheryl Koetting stated she was really excited about this year’s squad as she felt she had a group of girls who truly represented the Hedley School well.
