Eliza hurried down the street, her eyes on the vast harbor. She pushed past the busy passersby. Passing the building she had walked past every day, she spotted it her father s sailboat. Eliza hadn t been sailing since her father died. He d left her the boat when he d passed nine years ago, but she had never been brave enough to take it out without him. Now was her time. She realized she would need supplies, so she decided to leave the next day. The next morning, Eliza arrived back at the port and packed up the boat. She set sail without looking back.

Mrs. Kelly explains, Cheer is a sport because they commit just like any other team which therefore makes cheer a sport. These are just a few reasons we gathered as to why cheer is a sport.

Ashton: I m not sure yet.

Levi James states Cheer isn t a sport because it just simply isn t hard. Ethan Douglas explains, No, because you are cheering for a sport Lydia Kline says, cheer isn t a sport because you don t do anything. These are just a couple of reasons we gathered from different people. The 2018 football season is almost at an end for OMS. The football players are having some really good games. Their record is 5-2. They have had to travel really far for some of their games, but that does not stop them from winning.
