The Kenowa Hills
competitive cheerleading team finished in third place in the Division 2
regional last Saturday, less than a point out of second place finish, and
advanced to the state finals next weekend.

"We struggled in the
second round, but we came back strong in the third round, we stuck
everything," said Kenowa Hills coach Brenda Looks. "We're very
excited to be here, this is our second year going to the state finals."

The whole team did a
great job and the Knights had the maximum 16 girls performing in each round.
There were six seniors that coach Looks wanted to mention that stood-out as
exceptional performers and leaders, Laurel Pennell, Brianna Novicski, Nicolette Looks, Michelle Karas,
Stacy Vandriel and Casey Viilo.

The Knights finished
first in the districts and were conference champions, breaking three school
records this season. The state finals are next Saturday, March 7th
at 4:30 p.m. at the DeltaPlex.
