Angel Rice

My hero is Angel Rice. Angel is one of the best cheerleaders in the world.  She is known for her power tumbling passes.  I currently cheer for The Stingray Allstars which is the same cheer organization Angel cheered for in the past.  This summer I actually got to meet Angel Rice and she helped me improve some of my tumbling passes.  

Angel is my hero because she has gone through a lot of ups and downs in her cheerleading career and has never given up.  When things did not come easy she pushed herself harder.  Angel Rice has inspired a lot of cheerleaders throughout the world by being a positive role model in her sport.  Angel has used her fame to help pay for other kids that want to cheer but can't afford it. She also was active and won a lot of medals being a gymnast. 

One of the best qualities I feel she has is having a strong family value.  She was not going to cheer last year but then when her brother Jaden Rice made the world's champion team she decided to cheer with him because it was something her brother really wanted do with her. Angel is very close to her mother, brother and sister. She has a very busy and full schedule but she also finds time to be with her family.  She is my hero because she shows that you can be the best you want to be if you try and work hard.
