Whidbey Island still rules the cheer world.
While Coupeville High School didn’t field a team during this pandemic-altered school year, its neighbors to the North did.
And spoiler alert? Oak Harbor’s cheer program, which has a long history of success, is still making new additions to the trophy case.
Competing virtually, the Wildcats claimed a state title this past weekend, earning top honors from the Washington State Cheer Coaches Association.
OHHS topped all entrants in the Traditional Non-Tumbling Medium class, with Auburn Riverside claiming second, and Bethel collecting third.
The Wildcats are led by coach Jazmin Jones, who has been in charge of the program since 2017.
Her championship squad includes:
Melany Alanis
Johanna Asencio-Morcillo
Francisca Bartlett
Amber Biller
Alyssa Carlon
Jocelyn Carlon
Cassidy Gore
Audrey Moyes
Leah Murphy
