Dance & Cheer Is Not Easy | Brooke Parrish & Emilee Good
Comment
Dance and cheer at Carlsbad High School is serious business. Each member works hard to learn each choreographed move and technique for the betterment of the team. Brooke Parrish is a senior captain for the dance team at CHS and has been doing it for a long time. Her leadership has kept her team sharp throughout the fall semester. Emilee Good does both dance and cheer so getting breaks are a foreign concept for her. This was a fun episode.
Salutatorian & State Champ Abbey Dugan
Comment
Abbey Dugan has been an outstanding athlete in Carlsbad since she started on varsity as an 8th grader. Though she would never tell you this, she is one of the best soccer players Carlsbad has ever seen. Somehow she has been able to balance her sports training and school to a point of being 2nd in her class.
Abbey will be playing soccer for Hardin Simmons University next year.
