On January 23, the Warrior Cheer team competed for the first time in at least seven years at the AIA State Competition at Grand Canyon University, placing fifth in Division 2.<\/p>\n

Before the Warriors left for Phoenix, they had a team conversation about what they wanted to happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe biggest thing that we all agreed on was not regretting anything about our performance,\u201d said Coach Frankie Grijalva.<\/p>\n

Although the team did not come back as state champions, they were the only Tucson team to place in the top five in all three divisions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know we have a strong team, we just had to prove it,\u201d said senior Xamantha Williams. \u201cBeing top five in our state and number one in our city is such an awesome accomplishment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grijalva said, \u201cI knew that this team had it in them to make a name for our school and that is what they did and will continue doing as we get ready for Nationals in March held in Anaheim.\u201d<\/p>\n

The cheer team will be competing in Anaheim, California\u00a0in mid-March at the UCA National competition. The Cheer Boosters set up a \u201cGoFundMe\u201d account in order for Pueblo students, faculty, staff and community members to donate money to the team so that will be able to afford the trip.<\/p>\n

Williams said, \u201cI\u2019m leaving Pueblo happy to say that I was a part of the magic that helped our sports programs do so well this school year.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
