The Allen Community College cheer and dance squads left quite an impression Friday at the NJCAA-Division II National Basketball Tournament in Danville, Ill., where a group of local schoolchildren from Meade Park School were in attendance.
The cheerleaders performed several cheers for the students, then intermingled with the youngsters at halftime.
“Thank you to your cheerleaders! They absolutely made our students’ day!” a school official posted on Facebook. Iolan Marsha Burris was gracious enough to share her photos of the activities.
