Watched the whole thing looked like a very close meet...

Curious about how they total the start value for the team routine... is it a simple addition of the start values of each element performed or is there any consideration for choreography/performance/majority skills/etc. that would come into play for a traditional cheer routine score.

 

[cheersafety]

start value - any missed skills - deductions no choreography points

What are the deductions for...falls, missed skills, bobbles?

What are the deductions for...falls, missed skills, bobbles?

Falls, bobbles, feet movement, traveling, crossed legs, flexed feet, piked positions in tumbling, failure to set in tosses, lack of height in tosses, synchronization errors in tumbling, the list goes on and on ... a missed skill from the pre-submitted start value requires the routine to be revalued by the judges.

Feet movement by bases (especially in cradles and tosses) is probably one of the biggest changes in the sport - usually we're so used to only flyers getting knocked for stunting errors, but movement/traveling underneath a stunt carries a pretty hefty deduction.

How did they do that rankings for the competition? If Maryland was undefeated all year, how come they were ranked second?

Rankings were based on the average of your two highest home and your two highest away scores I believe.

That is correct. And that was fine with UMD fans...until we saw the level of bias in Oregon
