Niles Elite Shooting Stars gave an amazing performance. Even though they had no qualifying points in the fall, this great routine as enough to earn them a bid to compete at Nationals in Level 4.
Niles Elite Red overcame some last minute substitutions to give a near flawless performance. While they were also a long shot with no qualifying points, their hard work lead them to be selected to compete in Level 5. They will be defending their Level 5 title.
Niles Elite Black also earned the chance to defend their Level 6 title. With most of these athletes having been on 2 National Championship teams, all the other athletes better watch out, because Black is Back!
