In just its second year of existence on campus, the CSUSM Cheer Club is making waves on the national level.
The team captured first place at the Cheer of America Las Vegas Open Nationals last month. On Feb. 23, the team captured a second first-place trophy at the Sharp International Competition at Sea World.
Coach, Linda Zirkus, commented on the work that is put into succeeding at the highest level: "Because of some ASI restrictions we are unable to stunt or mount, so competing at this level we work hard to improve our dance and cheer."
The club is putting on a cheer camp for individuals in kindergarten through eighth grade from noon to 3 p.m. on Saturday. Those interested can contact Christina Silver at (661) 433-9145 or Rachel Harter at (818) 216-5176.
