2017 P-R-O Convention All Star: Charlotte Foxes Cheerleader McKayla

Our next 2017 P-R-O Convention All Star honoree comes from Major League Lacrosse, specifically the Charlotte Foxes. The Foxes are the official dance team of the Charlotte Hounds, which were founded in 2011. I believe this is the first time that they were here at P-R-O and I was fortunate enough to snag one of them for this feature. So without further ado, introducing Charlotte Fox McKayla, a 2017 P-R-O Convention All Star.
