Forest Grove competed against 24 other teams in the 6/5A Game Day division.

When it started snowing the day before the OSAA cheerleading championships, the fate of the event was as unclear as the weather.

Would the snow melt? Would the championships move to a different date? Would all of the teams be able to safely travel to the event that they had been working for all season? There were so many questions.

The snow did end up melting, but the championships was delayed by a day. Traditional teams still competed as scheduled on Saturday, but the Game Day divisions were postponed until Sunday.

The first session started with the 6A Small and 4A divisions. Newberg didn't have a clean performance, but their difficulty kept them on top in the 6A Small division. Roseburg claimed the silver trophy, which is tied for their highest finish in school history. David Douglas, Sherwood and Glencoe also went home with trophies in this division.

Newport finished first ahead of Sweet Home in the 4A division. The same four teams were also the top teams in this division in 2024, but North Bend edged out Philomath for the 3rd place spot in 2025.

The second session included the 4/3/2/1A Coed and 5A divisions. In the 4/3/2/1A Coed division, Gladstone won and Marshfield came in second place, which is a repeat of 2024. The Dalles and Cottage Grove finished 3rd and 4th, and this division awarded the only tie of the weekend with Junction City and Madras taking home 5th place.

In arguably the deepest division of the weekend, Crescent Valley gave a top-notch performance and walked away with the win in 5A. Lebanon came in 2nd place followed by Redmond and South Albany. In 5th place, Mountain View earned their first cheerleading state trophy in school history.

The final session on Saturday included the 6/5A Coed, 3/2/1A and 6A Large divisions. Tualatin gave a decisive performance and took home the top spot in 6/5A Coed. South Medford, Oregon City, McMinnville and West Albany also took home trophies in this division.

In the 3/2/1A division, Santiam Christian gave a high-energy performance to reclaim the top spot over Yamhill-Carlton. Glide and Elmira took home 3rd and 4th in this division; this was Glide's first state trophy in school history, and Elmira has not won a state trophy since 1990.

The 6A Large division consisted of the least amount of teams, but it did not lack in enthusiasm and talent. When the dust settled, Westview claimed the blue trophy followed by West Linn and then Lakeridge.

Sunday included the 4/3/2/1A and 6/5A Game Day divisions. Baker claimed the first back to back state title in any Game Day division by taking home their second straight blue trophy in the 4/3/2/1A division. Molalla, Westside Christian, Phoenix and Ontario also took home trophies in this division. These were the first ever Game Day State trophies won by Phoenix and Ontario.

Central reclaimed the top spot in the 6/5A Game Day division. Mountainside, Thurston, Churchill and Lake Oswego also went home with trophies in this huge division. This was the first ever state trophy won in the Game Day division by Mountainside, Churchill and Lake Oswego.

Whether it was the goal to simply make it to State, hit zero, take home a trophy, or win the blue trophy, all 99 teams that made it to the State Championships should be proud of what they accomplished this season.
