USA Today: Judge in Conn.: Cheerleading not a college sport

USA Today published Judge in Conn.: Cheerleading not a college sport and quoted Bill Seely of USA Cheer.

Bill Seely, the executive director of USA Cheer, a national governing body for both sideline and competitive cheerleading, said he believes the ruling represents only a minor setback for the efforts to make cheer an intercollegiate sport.

“It’s an opportunity to look at what hasn’t worked and find what will work, so we are creating more opportunities for young women and not affecting other female sports,” he said. “It’s an opportunity to tweak some things.”
