Congratulations to Pottstown High School Cheerleaders and Head Coach Megan Miller assisted by Emily Jerdon for their outstanding performance at the Pioneer Athletic Conference Cheer Championships. 

The team placed third in the small squad division and fifth overall. 

The close of their routine includes a double crossing toss of two of the squad's members which was unmatched by any other team.

It is the first time in more than 15 years that a PHS Cheer Team has gone into competition. 

The practiced many hours after school all year and were at athletic events to show their support of school teams and never asked for recognition.

PHS Trojan cheerleaders include: Marisa Walker, Madison Friedman, Devyn Lopez, Kirstin McCalicher, Mari Pearson, Niaisha Elliott Moore, Kaelyn Draucker, Emily McCollum, Cynae Hills, Jayniana Williams, Natalia Brown, Keyora Frazier, Mackenzie Moser.
