Cheerleading

American University Cheerleading takes on NCA College Nationals after a grueling 16 hour bus ride.

On Wednesday, we had our official practice at the Ocean Center here in Daytona Beach and had a team dinner that night. Thursday, we competed in D1 Intermediate preliminaries in the Bandshell. We got our scores, and we made it to finals tomorrow! I’m so proud of these ladies and all we’ve accomplished. Watch out Daytona, we’re coming back better than ever tomorrow for finals. #TheWorkIsWorthIt
