The Junior Varsity made a name for themselves during their first trip to state competition. They placed second in the Junior Varsity division, right behind Smith Station.

The JV had four members selected to the Alabama All-Star squad. They were Lauren Hall, Lauren Scarbrough, Christy Rhodes, and Bea Gaskin.

Next step for the Varsity cheerleaders and seven members of the Junior Varsity is the World Cheerleading Association Nationals in Nashville, Tennessee on December 27th – 30th. The Varsity will compete for another National Championship and the seven members of the JV that have qualified, will be competing for a spot on Junior Team America.
