AND THEY’RE OFF — The 34-member Obion County Central High School cheerleading squad hopped aboard a bus Wednesday evening headed for Orlando, Fla., and the UCA National High School Cheerleading Championship competition at Disney World. The cheerleaders, who were joined by their coaches and chaperones, will be competing against other high school squads from across the country. OCCHS earned the invitation to the national championships by winning a regional competition in November 2012 in South Haven, Miss.
