On Saturday, January 16, 2016, the Poston Butte High School Cheer Squad earned 1st place trophies for both of the Blue and Orange Competition Cheer Squads at the UCA Cactus Cup at Cactus Shadows High School. The Blue Squad also was awarded the Grand Champion Trophy which is awarded to the team with the highest score for the entire competition. The Blue Squad will now compete next weekend at the Arizona Interscholastic Association State Competition. They will also travel to Orlando, Florida for the UCA National High School Cheerleading Championships.
“What an extraordinary accomplishment for these kids. Great job and best of luck at State and Nationals,” said Dr. Amy Fuller, Superintendent of Florence Unified School District.
