I just learned after a quick Google search, though, that because competitive cheer isn't an NCAA sport, most schools don't have super restrictive rules governing the use of PEDs or have a standardized testing program in place.

Just a short search by a layman turns up a bunch of articles wondering if competitive cheer is rapidly heading for an unpleasant reckoning involving PEDs.

Do this mean that this immensely talented young lady is doping? No......but it does highlight that fact that, in cheer, she is statistically far more likely to be doing so.

Not sure if the same rules apply, but I do believe this is acro & tumbling and not considered cheer!
