Special Honor

2005 - PRIDE OF TEXAS AWARD

The following five gymnasts have worked for the past several years, under the leadership of Cheryl Jarrett, preparing to film, present and teach the New Compulsory Routines for USA Gymnastics. They have traveled, worked long hours, taught coaches, judges, athletes the new routines while still continuing training for their own competitions. All of this was done in the most professional manner representing TEXAS like real champions. Never quitting, never complaining about the long hours - - just a sking if “anyone” needed help. Everywhere they traveled, endless accolades of appreciation for their professionalism at such a young age. And, of course, the country stands in AWE of Texas and what we represent. That is what the PRIDE OF TEXAS is all about. Congratulations and Thank You ladies, for caring enough to be the BEST!
