CSDR Boys and Girls Basketball and Cheerleader teams participated in Clerc Classic last weekend in Maryland. The cheerleaders won the cheer competition. It is their 2nd win in the last 4 years. Most of our cheers participated in their first Clerc Classic and we all were impressed with their performance. Thank to Stacey Hausman for making this possible for the cheers to win the Championship. Here is a comment from Stacey Hausman shown below:

Cheer Team returns home Champions!

The Riverside Cheer Team competed against 5 other deaf teams: Texas, Maryland, Fremont, M.S.S.D., and Indiana at the Clerc Classic Cheerleading Competition on Saturday, January 18. The team had given up all of their free time Wednesday through Friday to practice. In fact, they finished learning their dance Friday night. On Saturday, during competition, Riverside out-shined the competition with two awesome performances. No one could match their enthusiasm! Their timing was good, jumps beautiful, stunts successful, and tumbling was more advanced. We were also the only school to not fall out of a stunt.

The CSDR team consisted of: Marco Duarte (Sr.), PuaLei Ramos (Jr.), Marilyn Rivas (So.), Ian Vasquez (So.), Artesia Harris (So.), and Renee Atkinson (Fr.). All 6 team members have never been to a deaf competition before, but that did not stop them from performing like pros. In addition, two of our members were selected to the All-Star team: Marco and Marilyn. Congratulations CSDR Cheer! You have made Riverside very proud!

Go Cubs!
