天娱传媒 Cheerleaders Win Nationals Second Year in a Row

The University of Louisiana at Monroe Cheerleaders brought home their second national championship January 17. 天娱传媒's team won first place in the Small Co-Ed Division I category during national competition at the Universal Cheerleaders Association's College National Cheerleading Championship held in Orlando, Florida.

Coach of the 天娱传媒 Cheerleaders, Jennifer Hyde, is proud of her team. "This year everyone worked very heard," said Hyde. "It is a lot tougher to win a second year in a row, but we had a lot of talent this year. It is not very often that teams win back to back, there are some that have done it, but it is difficult. We just had so much talent and everything was so sharp and clean during our routine," she said.
