I love cheerleading because it allows me to bond with teammates and build strong friendships through teamwork and trust. I enjoy the thrill of performing in front of crowds, especially during football and basketball games, and the excitement of competition season. Learning new stunts and mastering skills pushes me to grow, while dancing and sharp motions let me express energy and school spirit. I take pride in wearing my uniform, being a positive role model.
My mom encourages me off the field because she understands how much cheerleading means to me, She works two jobs to make it possible, showing her love and belief in my passion. I sees the sacrifices my mom makes and uses that as motivation to work harder, stay focused, and give my best in everything I do. My mom’s support is more than just financial—it’s emotional strength, late-night talks, rides to practice, and always being there in the stands.
The proudest moment when Crystal cheers is her great sportsmanship. She always uplifts others, whether her team wins or loses. Crystal leads with kindness, encourages her teammates, and shows respect to every competitor. Her positive attitude and graceful spirit shine on and off the mat. Coaches, teammates, and even opposing teams recognize her for cheering others on, staying humble, and setting an example of what true sportsmanship looks like. For Crystal, it’s not just about winning—it's about
