The Outcome
After about an hour of being in line to perform, they called us into the tunnel. The tunnel is a place to kind of calm down and do one last pep talk, just with your team, No coaches. The 8 of us huddled and starting speaking. Saying that we know we are capable of winning and that no matter what happens we are all still a team. Finally, they called us to the floor. Now, when I compete, most of it is a blur. I’m so into the moment I can’t just remember it. But the one thing I do remember is seeing our coaches screaming. We hit a flawless routine.
The wait for awards was scary. But they finally got to our age group. “In second place, Freehold Giants!” We went nuts. We were screaming and hugging and crying.
