Lewis Wins!
Two Time Region II Champs: LCHS Cheerleaders and Coaches take a moment and pose for the camera minutes after being announced AAA Region II Champs.
Another LCHS record is broken.
For the first time in LCHS history, a team captured back-to-back regional titles.
LCHS Cheerleaders won AAA Region II in what many fans say is one of the toughest regions in the state Nov. 7 at Hedgesville High School.
Jefferson High School narrowly edged Mussleman High School for the runner-up. Both Lewis and Jefferson advance to the
AAA West Virginia State Cheerleading Tournament Sat., Dec. 12 at the Charleston Civic Center.
Their competition routine features a combination of cheer and dance routine. Both components feature high levels of difficulty including jumps, motions, gymnastics and builds. This year’s routine features one-man builds as well as high intensity gymnastics throughout the routine.
The team consists of returning lettermen and a strong group of seniors who have Regional, State and Big 10 experience. Last year, the team won Regionals, finished runner-up in the Big 1o, and finished fourth in AAA WV State Cheerleading Tournament.
