The Queens, formally known as F5, were not messing around when they took the stage to execute their day two performances. They weren’t satisfied with their day two performance and they displayed their drive and determination throughout their entire routine.

F5’s crowd favorite baseball theme this season that left the Arena going wild. F5 opened with strong standing tumbling and continued to show off their impressive elite tumbling skills throughout the entire routine.

The finale of the Maryland Twisters 15 minutes “Arena takeover” was Eye of the Storm. The crowd was blown away by Eye of the Storm’s day two performance. They executed a large variety of tumbling and hit a flawless routine!

Eye of the Storm was recently chosen to represent the United States this April as the Special Athlete US National Team. If their NCA performance was any preview of what the world will see at the ICU Championship, then you can expect BIG things from this talented team.
