okay this is how it happened, I was a sophmore... And On the Boys
Varsity Cheerleading squad. It was our Guy & girl Cheerleaders, and Boy
b-ball players Senior Night. Well it was 4th quarter, and the game was
against one of our HUGE rivals... Needless to say it was an out of your
seat nail biter and a totally cram packed house, so of course I had been
tumbling and going at it hard core ALL night. It was our last full time
out of game, and we decided to just tumble and put up our builds.. well
I decided why not tumble...(wrong thought I would soon find out!)SO out
I go, I had intended on pulling a round-off back hand spring tuck. I
didnt all I did was a round-off back hand spring rebound. I was soo...
tired from the game and going soo all out, but that made me frustrated,
because it was a some what new tumbling pass *and you know how you get
excited when you put down a new pass* So I headed back to the side line
to give it another go.... I did, I did the round-off back hand s!
pring and went up for the tuck, and blacked out. Next thing I remember
seeing is like a half second of the floor and then my head smacked it
and I knocked my self out, only to have my body crumble on top of me.
The crowd apparently went silent with the tremendous thud and thoughts of
"oh my gosh I think she broke her neck", I was partially hidden because
of the basketball huddle, but the soon realized and sat down to join in
the veiwing of me with my skirt completely up and legs and arms sprawed
every where. they said while I was out(which was for like 2 or 3
minutes) that my eyes rolled around in my head and I was talking about
nothing. when I came to, the only thing I remember was telling them to let me
pull my skirt down, and let me walk off the floor. They made me lay
there for like another 2 minutes. When I walked off I got a huge outburst
of cheers*quite ironic I think* But I was soo mortified I couldnt see
straight. I went to the emergency room with two huge knotts on!
my face and an aching back, I was diagnosed with sports induced
asthma,exaustion, and a slight concussion. I was the talk of school for
weeks... I dont think I will ever be able to exscape my "thud" :'(
