This year's team at the University of Delaware is truly special. For the rest of our lives we can keep our chins held high and speak of our teammates with a sense of pride that is both magical and emotional, and no one can ever take that away from us. There are so many things I could write about this year's team, but I will try to limit my thoughts to a couple of paragraphs. This group of athletes endured more hardship in their personal lives in a four month period of time than most people have in their entire lives. It was almost a feeling among the group that if we were even able to make the trip to Florida, that the rest would take care of itself.
Competition is easy after what they had battled.
Now they are National Champions and it makes the losses and hardships they faced just a little bit easier to deal with. Our season is not over. We will continue to perform at basketball games as well as make public relation appearances. However, this season will go down as the best ever. I realize that winning is not the only thing, but when you couple the championship with the excellence they demonstrate on a daily basis, there is little argument that this is the best cheerleading team in the University's history.
