The A-R-C Competitive Cheer Champion will be decided by the score of the 2.5 Minute routine; with less than the required minimum number of teams competing (5), the competitive cheerleading event will be held as an invitational this year. A divisional winner will be crowned in the 5-person Group Stunt and Game Day categories, with the A-R-C Competitive Cheer Invitational Champion being named from the 2.5-minute routine. 

The All-Conference competition for cheer and dance will take place at the conclusion of all divisions.
