CHS cheer wins at Boise State

Colfax cheerleaders last week won the top trophy in a competition which concluded the cheer camp trip to Boise State University. The cheer camp brought squads from 20 different schools.

Some of the squads at the camp came for large schools where cheer slots are awarded through stiff competition.

The competition included sideline cheer, halftime cheer, band dance and halftime dance.

Scores for each event were compiled into a final “game day score,” and when it was over Colfax topped the competition.

The win at the Boise camp, entitles the Colfax squad to perform at the college bowl game which will be in Orlando, Fla.

Cheer advisor Connie Ellis noted the win does not include expenses of getting to the game.
