Last Saturday, January 5th, Bay City Central’s Varsity Competitive Cheer Team competed at Midland High School. The team faced the other division two teams including John Glenn, Carlton Airport, Fenton, Linden, and Mt. Pleasant. The Bay City Central Wolves took 2nd place scoring a total of 685.54 points.

     It was a tough fight against Carlton Airport, who took first. The Varsity Cheer team has currently won their first two competitions and took second in their last. The 5 time consecutive Saginaw Valley Champions, and 2016, 2018 District Champions have a new coach this year, but they are still taking the wins.

     According to the team they are preparing themselves to win the Saginaw Valley Championship for the sixth time, and possibly even districts. If they win districts this year, it would be the first time the Varsity Cheer team has ever won districts two times in a row. Kylie Yanick, a Varsity Cheer Senior, said, “The highlight of the competition was finishing round three and realizing everyone hit all of their stunts. I’m looking forward to getting an even higher score in round three at the next competition.”

     She also said, “I think that our team is going to continue to improve in our scores and win competitions.” The team has been improving a lot all season, so the potential is there. The wolves next competition is Saturday, January 12th at Breckinridge High School.
