That was some memorable week for the spirit program at Texas Tech with the pom squad winning two national championships, the co-ed cheer squad taking a second place, Raider Red collecting top prize in the mascot category, and the STUNT partner team grabbing a third place.
All in all, not a bad few days' work.
The recognition was the result of a lot of hard work leading up to the National Cheerleaders Association & National Dance Alliance Collegiate Cheer and Dance Championships that were held recently in Daytona Beach, Florida.
It is sometimes easy to overlook the efforts of those who comprise the Red Raider spirit program, but these young men and women put in countless hours of work honing their skills and polishing their routines while representing Texas Tech in a positive manner. Earning these accolades in competitions against other respected programs affirms their talent and commitment.
