Daytona Part 2: If the Judges Disagree – Netflix CHEER! Episode 9 Recap

By Annemarie Arthurs

Published March 22, 2022

Coach Vontae starts off by going over scores for day one. As the team reviews their performance, they see exactly what they need to do. Their routine has the potential to score a 99.9. Their day one score, with the deductions, came to a 96.02. These scores are telling Trinity that the judges want it to be them, and they are ready to give them a reason. 

Coach Monica is going over scores with Kailee. Their overall score with no deductions came to a 98.33. Monica knows the judges score more conservatively day one, and if you do well on day two, the scores typically go up. It is a very subjective sport, and she is prepared to work hard and review some sections. 

Here we go. Day two. 

Warmups have started and it’s time for both teams to get all their jitters out. As they head to the bandshell, Navarro and Trinity know exactly what they need to do. 

Trinity is up first! With a team chant backstage to get them excited, they are ready to take the floor! 

From the mouth of Coach Vontae:

Music. Is. On.

Standing fulls, hit. Stunts, hit. Dees running pass, HIT! OOOO I have goosebumps! Baskets, hit. Time for the pyramid….HIT! With the energy they brought to the routine and dance, it’s a HIT! LET’S GO!

Navarro knows they need to hit the best routine possible! The nerves are getting the best of them, but they need to not worry about the awards and show the judges everything they have worked so hard for.

WE CAN. WE WILL. WE MUST

Toe fulls, hit. Standing tumbling, hit. Sadly, there’s a stunt fall during stunt section. Running tumbling and pyramid HIT! 

After their performance, Gill is extremely upset about her stunt fall. They are trying to stay positive and reminding themselves that they were in a good spot after day one. 

Awards have finally arrived, and due to covid they did not take place live on the bandshell. Trinity is watching them from their hotel room, and Navarro is watching from a ballroom. Monica knows they got a .75 deduction and is trying to calculate what they could have got versus TVCC.

College nationals, that’s a wrap so it’s time for a recap!

The sun was shining and the stage was set for hundreds of the best collegiate cheer and dance teams to do battle at the beach. Spectators flooded the Ocean Center and filled the Bandshell hoping to catch a glimpse of their favorite teams. And like years past, these teams did not disappoint. When the world famous clock tower struck 9am on Thursday morning we knew we were in for one of the most iconic collegiate national competitions to date!

This year we saw teams continue their incredible wining streak – achieving 6 and even 7 titles in a row, we witnessed teams overcome unprecedented controversy only to stay on top and bring home the coveted NCA banner and we were privy to multiple zero deduction routines that took our breath away. The only downside to this spectacular event is that all these amazing teams weren’t able to take home the mesmerizing NCA trophy.

After competing in Daytona for 5 years and even be crowned a Grand National Champ, I can say there is no better competition on earth. Can’t wait until next year to see who will keep their streak alive, who will overcome and who will shock the world once again! Until then, keep grinding. The work is worth it!





Here are your 2019 NCA Collegiate Champions
