Honestly, I don't think it's an over-reaction. Every time I watch these young women, I cringe in fear over what could happen. When something bad happens (which I admit is not often for the number of squads out there), it's a young girl falling 15-20 feet onto a hard surface, possibly head-first. I wish that HS cheerleading had the limits that the conference imposed. But that's just me.
Yes, they're athletes, no question. Nah, it's not a sport. Again, that's just me.
