Congratulations to the team. To my inexperienced eye they seemed to have aced the routine cleanly but the pyramid did not appear to me to have the degree of difficulty of those from Navarro or Trinity Valley. Terrific athletes in this team.
Although it’s true it wasn’t as difficult as narvaro or trinity valley, the entire routine is on what’s called dead mat, where as most are on sprung floor which makes it prettily much twice as exhausting as normal cheer competitions, meaning the athletes required for a routine of narvaros caliber are few and far between
@@malcolmpearsebrooks114 That is really interesting. This is probably a naive question but why would a team choose to compete on a "dead mat" rather than "sprung floor"?
Asclepius generally speaking sprung floor is preferable however it’s about 20,000$(Canadian) to have it installed so it’s expensive but the pros outweigh the price since dead causes a lot of stress on joints and regularly will cause shin splints however sprung doesn’t completely negate this it just helps reduce the rate it occurs
@@malcolmpearsebrooks114 Got it! Thanks for enlightening me. Considering how prestigious and competitive cheering is in Texas, I would think that Texas Tech could afford to buy a sprung floor, if it is an advantage. No? It seems that both varsity colleges are a source of athletes for Texas Tech for those who want to pursue a Bachelor's degree. I read that a mended Sherbs and Austin headed to Texas Tech.
Asclepius it’s also a facility thing, sprung floor can’t be easily moved and has to be set up semi permanently so it’s possible they head to a all-star gym to use their floor, however it’s also possible they train on dead to better prepare for the actual competition not unlike what we saw in cheer with narvaro training outside as for sherbs and Austin I would have to check narvaros roster to see however it’s my irregular for athletes to cycle through different college team although it would be odd to go from narvaro to Texas tech since narvaro is considered the best school for cheer
U of Louisville is also elite at cheerleading, and yeah exactly you get the degree and harder and more competition.Although a couple of the Navarro girls did move onto Texas Tech after where they can transfer their credits to earn their degree this year and next, which is awesome. You also have to remember that a lot of the kids who attend Navarro and Junior Colleges in general, don't have the grades for a four year college/University or they can't afford a program, they may come from broken home and/or a lower income background and may not have the means to attend University, even a public one. It seems as though that was the case for the majority of kids at Navarro in the USA, and then they are able to turn their life around and get their degree, which is great. I don't know if full cheerleading scholarships are a thing either, since cheer is governed by UCA or NCA, and not NCAA it may not be? So that may not be an option
@@premonitiondrill that's what GRAND NCA CHAMPION MEANS. Highest score of all competition. Doesnt matter their division. They were the first JUCO to do it.
@@StewieY yes but there’s multiple divisions where you can get first place and there’s, narvaro got grand champs meaning they HD the highest overall score Texas tech was competing in coed large vs narvaro is coed small so while narvaro did win grand champs Texas tech may have won coed large champions
I had to watch it twice. Once for the routine twice for the mascot!🤣 Loved him
The dance had me shook!!!!!! CANNOT wait to see them on the bandshell this year!!!

So as a cheerleader, would you want to go to Texas Tech and earn a bachelor's degree or Navarro and earn Netflix fame?
exactly everyone’s saying there dream school is navarro but i’d rather cheer at a 4 year school
A lot of the Navarro kids move on to Texas tech anyway 🤷🏽♂️

Didn’t Navarro do this routine in 2018??

@@cassidym9447 navarro has been better than tech.... 5 times. But this was a solid routine and I really enjoyed it.
