Hindi man perpekto ang makapigil-hiningang pyramid routine, nakuha naman ng Perpetual Help ang ayuda ng mga hurado upang muling maiuwi ang kampeonato sa Season 91 NCAA Cheerleading competition nitong Martes, sa MOA Arena sa Pasay City.
Tunay na matamis ang tagumpay, higit at nabawi nila ang tropeo laban sa Arellano University Chief Squad na nagpaluha sa kanila sa nakalipas na season.
“Prepared really hard physically and mentally because our loss last year was really painful,” sambit ni Perpetual Help team captain Mark Espinas.

“But we took our loss last year as an inspiration and we made sure our flaws last year were not repeated this year,” aniya.
Ginapi ng Las Piñas-based Perps Squad ang Chiefs, 195-193, para mabawi ang korona at patatagin ang reputasyon bilang premyadong cheerdance team sa bansa.
“For the first time, we performed with gymnasts, who are all rookies,” pahayag ni Perpetual Help coach Ruf Rosario.
Sa kabuuan, nakamit ng Perpetual ang ikasiyam na titulo mula nang simulan ang torneo, may 12 taon na ang nakalilipas.
“Despite what you call it a dynasty, our players and official have worked harder to preserve the winning tradition,” ayon kay Rosario.
“We will strive for more but we will keep our feet on the ground even though we’re in cloud nine right. We are planning to compete abroad again and make not just the Perpetual Help but the whole NCAA proud,” aniya.
“It’s a proud accomplishment by the school,” sambit ni Perpetual Help Policy Board member Anthony Tamayo.
