Yes, I meant to include the fact that this year is an exception. I'm guessing their coaches thought it would be a great competition to attend since it's not often that they get to compete with the other large senior teams. Think about it this way, other than Panthers, the other 4 highly contested large senior teams are along the East coast. It would be a waste for Panthers to wait until NCA to compete, at least at Cheersport their coaches will know where their routine stands amongst the 5 powerhouse teams.
