Mystic Valley cheerleaders reach regional tournament
Mystic Valley cheerleaders in action.
The following is a press release from the Mystic Valley Charter School:
The Mystic Valley Cheerleading squad finished in first place in their division in a competition held last Sunday at St. Mary’s in Lynn. The competition featured schools from throughout the area and from the Commonwealth Athletic Conference in particular. By finishing first in the division the girls qualified for the 2009 Regional State Tournament which will be held this Sunday at Woburn High.
This is the first time in school history that the cheerleading team qualified for the Regional state Tournament. In addition to winning their division the team won the Commonwealth Athletic Conference Congeniality Trophy.
After the competition Athletic Director Peter Connolly said "with the commitment and dedication to Coach McWilliams and Coach Gregorio, the girls worked really hard this 2009 season. I am extremely proud of the team. Each member of the team spent countless hours working hard this season and this looks like a catalyst for the years to come. Mystic Valley is now on the map in cheerleading and will continue to grow in the coming years. Congratulations Girls."
Coach Traci McWilliams was very happy with the results and the girls’ performance. Their routine is about 2 minutes and 30 seconds long. In that short period of time they perform all sorts of flips, jumps and stunts to the beat of several different songs. "They really looked amazing," said the proud coach McWilliams.
Members of the squad include Tianna Hairston, Emma Justice, Jamie Kerner, Joan Kinnon, Leah Brown, Brittany Alfonso, Jaqui Finn, Allison Pronto, Kelly Finn, Janessa Sambiert, Marissa Cagno, Rebecca Milley, Dominique Charles, Abby Vincent, Bianca Genualdo, Erika Aiello, Stephanie Martorana, Amber Scarpaci, Gabrielle Munafo, Marissa Munafo, Dasmin Brutus, Whitley Alfonso, Stephani Irvin, Angela Dello Russo, and Ashley Tortora.
