I wanted to stay. I'm not very happy to be here. Those people just lost everything.

It's definitely a chance for these kids to show everyone in the Colorado area what they have and a great chance to just compete.

It's surreal. I can't believe I made it from a total disaster to electricity.

A lot of people, when they hear cheer or dance , they don't think of them as athletes. But that's only until they see them out there. Then that really helps grow the sport.

We try to spread the competition to where there's a market. Denver is definitely one of them.

I was thankful I had an MRE to eat; I had a smelly, stinky room from all the water, but at least I had a roof over my head.
