WORD FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

GREETINGS, GHSA CHEERLEADING FANS

W

elcome to the 2019 GHSA Cheerleading Championships! I know you are ready for the high energy performances that these athletes have perfected throughout the year to bring to these championships. There will be excitement abounding as the entire season comes down to 2.5 minutes. One mistake could make the difference for a team as they work to meet their goal of becoming a State Champion!

This year’s event is sure to be an exciting one! Special thanks to GHSA Associate Director Penny Mitchell and cheer coordinator Pam Carter for their hard work in making our competitive season the best ever. I want to thank the

many volunteers who make this event possible and run smoothly. We extend our special appreciation to the Columbus Sports Council, the Civic Center and the city of Columbus for being our host. Finally we thank our sponsors and hope you will support them and our corporate sponsors whenever possible.

Thank you for supporting GHSA Cheerleading and please join me in offering our best wishes for all of our competitors!

NFHS Network and Georgia Public Broadcasting will broadcast from the event. NFHS Network will live stream all Sectionals on Friday with subscription rates to apply. Georgia Public Broadcasting will free live stream Friday (7:00 pm) 1A / Coed Finals and both Saturday Finals at GPB.org/cheerleading.

CHAMPIONSHIPS RETURN TO COLUMBUS FOR TWO PACKED DAYS OF COMPETITION

BY CRAIG SAGER II | CSAGER@SCOREATL.COM

T

he 2019-20 GHSA Cheerleading State Championships return to the Columbus Civic Center for two days of electrifying routines and competition. The first day of action will see squads from each classification (AA-AAAAAAA) compete to secure a place in Saturday’s finals. Day 1 will also crown the champs of Class A-Public, Class A-Private and the high-flying COED Competition.

Class A-Public has seen Gordon Lee win the last three state crowns, and the Trojans are making their return to Columbus to compete against Commerce, Lake Oconee Academy, Irwin County, Bowdon, Baconton Charter, Ace Charter and Lincoln County on Friday for this year’s title. When Class A split for the first time seven years ago, Mt. Paran began its current championship run and the Eagles enter the weekend having taken the Class A-Private championship every year since.

The Eagles headline a field of finalists this year that includes Savannah Christian, Brookstone, Hebron Christian, First Presbyterian Day, George Walton Academy, Calvary Day and Pinecrest Academy.

Mill Creek won its first-ever CO-ED state title last year and recently placed second at the CO-ED Sectionals behind North Gwinnett. Milton, Chapel Hill and Forsyth Central also had top 5 finishes and will be among the 16 teams contending for this year’s CO-ED title..

In Class AAAAAAA, East Coweta, North Paulding, Woodstock, South Forsyth, Discovery, Brookwood, Archer and

Lowndes are booked for the finals on Saturday after placing first in their respective regions this past weekend. Defending state champion Lambert placed second in Region 5-AAAAAAA behind South Forsyth and therefore will be one of the 16 squads that will take the stage on Friday in hopes of qualifying for Saturday’s finals.

SATURDAY’S SPOTLIGHT Northgate earned the top seed out of Region 5-AAAAAA over the weekend and will aim for its fifth-straight Class AAAAAA title this Saturday. The Vikings previously won 5-straight titles in 200711 and another title would give the program its tenth all-time title. Northgate is already joined in the finals by top seeds Houston County (Region 1), Richmond Hill (Region 2), Lakeside-Evans (Region 3), M.L. King (Region 4), Creekview (Region 6), Pope (Region 7) and Region 8 champion Lanier.

Two-time defending Class AAAAA champion Carrollton (Region 7) secured one of the classification’s seven spots in Saturday’s finals with Warner Robins (Region 1) South Effingham (Region 2), McIntosh (Region 3), Ola (Region 4), Lithia Springs (Region 6) and Loganville.

On Friday, a field of 23 Class AAAAA teams will compete for one of the 9 spots that are still available for Saturday’s finals. vPhotography/GHSA
