Pirates Sweep Shepherd Invite, Hold Firm as Division 4’s No. 1

The Pewamo-Westphalia competitive cheer program put on a dominant display at the Shepherd Invitational, sweeping the event and capturing first place at every level. The performance further solidified the Pirates’ grip on the No. 1 overall ranking in Division 4, according to MichCompCheer. With an eye-popping division-best average score of 723.67 points, Pewamo-Westphalia has separated itself from the pack early in the season. The Pirates continue to set the standard in Rounds 1 and 2, leading Division 4 in average scores in both rounds, while trailing only Hudson in Round 3.

The Pirates will look to maintain their top ranking when they compete at the Jonesville High School Invitational on Saturday, January 17, 2026.
