“The team truly created their own legacy by hitting a perfect routine, while protecting the legacy of all the girls that had come before them,” Williams said. “They know they have to meet and uphold the expectations of what it means to be a Chapin Varsity cheerleader, which is not easy. The commitment and work ethic is demanding in order to carry on the tradition of putting excellence on the mat. We are so proud of this team and their hard work to protect the legacy of Champions!”
