Last week at the 24th NCA & NDA collegiate Cheer and Dance Championship in Daytona Beach Florida, the Valley had four cheerleaders on three different college teams represented. Jill Neville, Cameron Shoe, Alex Tant and Emily Suiter.
Almost 7,000 student athletes and coaches from 35 states, Japan, Canada and Costa Rica tested their technical skills, showmanship and game day abilities against the best of the best!
