In brief: Hudson
cheerers 10-0

The Hudson
competitive cheer team uses a focused performance to win its regular season
finale.

From staff and wire reports

ALBION -- Hudson High School's competitive cheer team recorded its
10th win of the year as the Tigers closed their regular season Saturday in Albion. The Tigers scored 649 points.

The team presented its "Wow Award" to senior Carly
Waterstraut who received an elbow to the mouth
about one minute into the final routine that knocked out her teeth and sent
her to spend the afternoon with an oral surgeon. The senior Tiger completed
the two- minute plus routine flawlessly, keeping her mouth closed so as not
to get blood on the mat which would have cost her team a penalty and the
match, according to Hudson
coach Kelly Bailey.
