Plot

Catalina "Lina" Cruz is a tough, sharp-witted Latina cheerleader from hardcore streets of East L.A. who transfers to a posh, elite Malibu high school after her widowed mother remarries a wealthy man. Lina not only finds herself a fish-out-of-her-environment at her new school, but she faces off against Avery, the wealthy, popular and ultra-competitive all-star cheerleading captain to qualify for a spot on her new school's cheerleading team. With the help of her new quirky sheltered stepsister, Skyler, her former teammates, Gloria and Treyvonetta, and Sky's underachieving cheer team, the Sea Lions, they realize their full potential both on and off the court. But when Avery gets wind that Lina is not only coming after her at the spirit championship but her younger brother Evan as well, Lina learns just how dirty she is willing to play.
