JUNIOR VARSITY arm hurts, I have a pulled muscle; at least you don ' t have a bruise like mine; lets take a break I ' m exhausted, stat- ed the cheerleaders. These were a few of the problems cheerleaders had when an upcoming competition was ahead. Lifting people was very difficult unless the right technique was used. It makes everyone aware of what is being done and it makes it less likely for some- one to get injured, ex- pressed Cherise Damper. Second year advisor, Mrs. Vicky Riddle, had new rules and ideas for the pep squad. In the summer, she began her quest to have a superior squad. My expectations this year for pep was to have a team who were confident and proud. This years team is the sharpest team in the history of pep at Arlington, confirmed Vicky Riddle. First captains were picked differ- ently compared to previous years. The captain candi- dates had to try-out and take a written test. There were no co-captains just captains of each squad and an overall team captain. When the final candidates were chosen Julie Hollen- No Pain, No J Gain! m beck was JV Captain, Gina White, Songleader Captain, Diana Keers, Varsity Captain and Trina Gopar was Team Captain. The cheerleaders went to USA Camp in Santa Barbara. Varsity took all superior rib- bons while the Songleaders had both excellent and Su- perior ribbons and the JV had excellent ribbons. Camp taught the girls chants and cheers for both basketball and football. Cheerleading camp was really fun! It brought the squad together. We became great friends, said Dani Buck. This helped to bring squad unity togeth- er and to place in competi- tions later in the school year. The last competition was held at RCC. The Varsity team had a USA Cheerlead- ing Instructor come to Ar- lington to assist the girls in improving their cheer. The Varsity received third place and the JV, in the freshman division, won first place. The competition was over and the cheerleaders planned to get ready for next year. Trina Gopar explained, We thought we could have done a lot better job; I ' d like to try again this year because I think we had a 1 pep squad. by Trina Gopar Front row: Jill Hollenbeck, and Julie Hollenbeck. 2nd row: Melissa Wiese.
