A team of Salinas-based Riptide All Stars earned a spot in the 2013 Cheerleading Worlds Event in Orlando, Florida, to take place the end of April.



The team competed this past weekend at the PacWest Cheerleading and Dance Championships in Portland, OR and walked away with a second place finish.

The Cheerleading Worlds competition takes place April 27-29, 2013 at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, FL. Riptide All Stars is in its 9th year, and many of the kids on the team have been cheering with gym owner Sarah Diehl since the inception of Riptide All Stars. The team consists of 24 athletes and 3 alternates from as far away as Sacramento, however most athletes are from the Monterey/Salinas area.

“Our season started in disarray with a robbery at the gym where thieves stole over $10,000 worth of equipment,” said Diehl, “But it’s ending on a high note and we couldn’t be prouder of all our athletes and entire Riptide family.”

Go Riptide athletes! Good luck in Florida!
