Songleaders did dance routines to music played over the public address systems at pep rallies and sports events. I enjoyed being a songleader because I got to go to all the football and basketball games, said Mindy Reece. I got to cheer all our teams on to victory. I also met a lot of people, both at our school and at other schools we ' ve cheered at. We also went to the football, basket- ball and soccer banquets, to help set up and just to support our teams. Some songleaders enjoyed being on the squad because of the opportunities for self- espression that the dance routines provided. I feel I can express myself, said Kelli Harter, a JV songleader, while I have a lot of fun performing. Mrs. Sue Lacoste, squad sponsor, was pleased with the new group ' s progress mastering cheer and song routines and im- proving school spirit. I really think that the songleaders, for a first year team, really did a great job, she said. The girls really worked well together. SPIRIT SQUAD. FRONT ROW: Elizabeth Jones. Gwendolyn Goul.

truggles help team through the season A season record of six wins and nine losses is not often the cause for celebration. The boys ' tennis coach, however, felt that, considering the inex- perience of the first year group, his team was quite successful. Coach Steve Lake, a teacher at Sunnymead School, said that the team had a frustrating start since the players were new to the sport, but as the season went on, thin gs got better. Each individual had to learn all the fundamentals, he ex- plained. Once this was achiev- ed, the season became much less frustrating. Player Kou Her had praise for Lake ' s help with the team. One thing I haven ' t forgot- ten was that he said we should not worry about winning, Her said. We just had to work on improving for next year. The teams first win was against Cajon High School. All seemed lost until the last match was captured by a doubles team, securing a one-point win. One reason the team began its season with a lot of skep- ticism, Lake said, was because most opponents were varsity teams. With experience behind them, however, the players looked toward improving the next year. Every player on the team improved tremendously in only three months, he said. They were showing a lot of effort. Although this was Canyon Springs ' first tennis team, they showed a lot of pride, not only for Canyon Springs, but for the teams they played. BOYS ' TENNIS.
