The MBU Cheer Team participated in the University Cheerleaders Association Cheer Camp July 28th-30th. The three-day camp on the Missouri State University campus provided the Spartan mixed squad with the opportunity to come together and fine-tune their skills in time for the 09-10 sports seasons.
On the final day of the camp, the MBU squad competed as one of seven teams in the Small Co-Ed Division. The Spartan squad earned third place in both the cheer and chant competitions. They also won four blue superior ribbons and one red excellent ribbon in the evaluation portion of the camp on day two.
"They really came together as a squad and accomplished a lot at camp," said second year Head Coach Jessica Johnson. "I am excited about the chemistry I see on the squad and can't wait to see how much more they come together this year. It should be a fun year!"
