Here's a video of a bunch of fun moments and pictures from over the years...

A little about me and my gym:
I cheer for Top Gun Allstars. Last year I was on Semi Limited Coed but this year I am on the Large Coed team. Top Gun has won

Worlds for the last four years in different divisions and has always been a top contender in the sport of cheerleading. Victor

and Kristen Rosario are amazing coaches. They have worked with amazing coreographers like this years coreographer of the year

Eric Little. They also have an amazing staff. We travel to competitions in Atlanta GA (battle under the big top and cheersport),

Dallas TX (NCA nationals), Indianapolis In (indy jamfest), and also a ton of local competitions like UCA. This will be my fourth

year cheering for Top Gun. My sister Ashley Ricardo cheers for Top Gun also. My younger sister amanda does too!

By the way, if you are interested in getting a Top Gun Shirt you can visit the Top Gun Pro Shop.
