@steeItough they got beat in regular season by xavier and tied when sau hit perfect and xavier had a stunt fall. SAME RUBRIC… it’s bigger than just cheer

@CaliCrush4L @cheerfeds This is also not our first encounter with NAIA. Every year I have been on this team we have encountered many problems in this division. At the end of the day we deserved fair judgment and unfortunately we wasn’t able to receive it based of simply the color of our skin…

[January 15th❄️ @_ohkennedy_]

@CaliCrush4L @cheerfeds I mean if it walk like a duck and talk like a duck…. ITS A DUCK

[January 15th❄️ @_ohkennedy_]

@CaliCrush4L @cheerfeds And really the inconsistency of the scoring is also a problem as well as them not having answers as to why they did what they did.

[January 15th❄️ @_ohkennedy_]

@CaliCrush4L @cheerfeds Really we have to acknowledge the fall. At the end of the day. The math is not mathing

[kennedy @kennedyguy_]

psa: this isn’t a post to bash the winning team this is to bring awareness to the unfairness in the naia. #wewontbesilenced

@thesonnnier Dat part!!!!

[January 15th❄️ @_ohkennedy_]

This is crazy, especially when the judges cant even give a straight answer……

[kennedy @kennedyguy_]

It’s upsetting that my black brothers and sisters and I are still experiencing racism in 2024. We put out two 0 deduction routines this weekend while the other team had 2 athletes fall to the ground and their score only went down .2, we had the highest difficulty with no doubt.

[Ashley @UhmGoist]

@NAIA when is the comp cheer panel going to address these problems that I know coaches have brought attention to. Scoring and consistency within judging being a top issue.

[CEO🎖️ @syrestarz]

To be black is to be 10x better and still lose
