Until Next Season

The Ninjas held seed and earned 11th place at Regionals this season. There was a reported sighting of Ugly Ducklings sporting full denim outfits while cheering with traditional 90's pop music and their own cheers. Vanilla Ice performed an extended version of their "Go Ninjas" cheer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFLGRidfFo4
