The Greenwave Tiny Mites cheerleading team had the opportunity to compete last week in the Jamz Nationals in Las Vegas. 

Tori Edgington Ausano, a coach and mom, said it was an amazing weekend. "They owned that whole stage. What an amazing ending to watch them throw it down like that on one of the biggest cheer stages in the nation. Although we competed out of our age division, we definitely did not out-shine." 

She said it has been a great cheer year, and a dream to be a part of this team. "Getting to work hand in hand with these kids, their families, and our coaches has been an extreme honor, and highlight in my life."

Hailey Perez also coached the team and said the girls' heart and dedication are things that can't be taught. "They poured their heart and souls into every single practice for the past seven months, and on the biggest stage in the nation, it showed. I have no words for the abundant amount of happiness, pride, and love for these girls and what they did this weekend." 

Although the team did not come home with a trophy, Perez said they came home happy and learned so much.

Perez and Ausano were joined by Nicole Howell, Cassandra Fox, and Tami Rowland as coaches. 

She thanked the parents of her team for sharing their girls with them. "As a coach you go into it 'teaching them' but man, they taught me. We had the best, most supportive parents around."

From the editor: This is a very good question and we apologize for not catching that wasn't in there. We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITORComment author: Debra J RidenourComment text: So sorry for your loss.
