Does anyone know if this award was given out for the last session?

I know our friends from Penn Elite in PA won grand for S3 and got the sneakers.

The results are messed up on the website...session 3&4 are the same results with all the Worlds division placements missing...does anyone have International placements?

Awards were crazy! Not to mention the announcer made a mistake in small coed. Calling Ohio Valley All-Stars in fourth place (after they were in first day one) then had them walk the fourth place surfboard trophy down the runway to be filmed and then said "Wait that was wrong - the correct fourth place team was ...... " Ended up with Ohio Valley being first, national champion and top five scores of the day. That made my heart stop for a moment!

That was making me so mad. We still had a 3 hour drive home.

Happy Reign got paid <3 They don't get the credit they deserve

does anyone have maryland marlins rogue? are they brand new?

This competition was organized and ran completely on time right up until the last team competed and then everything fell apart. I left after the Sharkies started wrestling with the announcer and dancing the cotton eye joe. Really sad ending to a wonderful competition. Glad to hear about Reign...I was completely confident that they had won the bid but it is so good to hear it officially. I really wish I could have heard it last night but it was coming up on midnight and I did not trust myself not to tackle Sharky to the ground and demand he tell me who won the bid! Don't mess with a cheer mom at the end of a looooooooooooooooong 2 day National!

I completely agree.... it seemed to take forever to get through the awards... My personal opinion is that they need to do another hall for awards, so they can go throughout the day on Sunday and the event can end at a reasonable hour... If Maryland kids didnt have spring break this week, you would have a lot more pissed off parents....

The partial upstairs ballroom is completely inadequate for normal session sizes. The only other full group they could've pushed upstairs and not had day 2 upstairs go on insanely late would've been Mini 2. At 6 Mini 2 teams, it probably wasn't really worth splitting up the L2 teams. You could not have effectively squished any of the downstairs awards into this ballroom either. Maybe with the convention center expansion due to finish this year they can move warmups into the new ballroom and/or exhibit hall and open up the entire upstairs ballroom making it a more useable space. Then they could schedule more of the competition and/or hold more awards upstairs, freeing up time downstairs.

Maybe they have out grown this venue?

anyone know the photographer for this event? I took the card but can't find it. Somehow their 3 lap tops were not sufficient for all the people wanting to view photos!

According to town documents, ACDA's booked through 2015. The venue's growing, 32,000 sq feet to be completed this fall. Plans are underway to put a 1200 seat auditorium in, hopefully with a stage big enough for cheer, since cheer competitions are listed in the proposal as one of the desired uses. The auditorium likely won't be around until atleast 2015 though, since actions needed for it to move forward didn't appear to make it through the Maryland General Assembly this year.
