Louisville Cheerleading

The University of Louisville co-ed cheerleading squad has won 14 National Cheerleading Association Championships, and the all-girl squad has won six championships. Louisville cheerleading is a high recognized team and role model for many. They give up all breaks or part of them to train for 2 minuets and 30 seconds on the mat. Both teams are coached by Todd Sharp, James Speed focus in on the Co-ed team while Misty Hodges focuses in on the all-girl team. Standards are set very high in order to make this team and it's an honor to be able to call yourself a Louisville cheerleader. This year the all-girl team ended up coming in second at Nationals, losing to one of their big competitors Maryland. It was a heartbreaking loss for the team since they consecutively won the title of National Champion years before. It was a hard loss but it will not stop the lady cards from striving to work and be the best they can be. People now and returning members are working hard on fitness, tumbling, stunting, and over all crowd appeal in hopes they will be able to call themselves a CARDS CHEERLEADER!!
