Leading the Skyhawk spiritline at our victorious Homecoming game is senior Marilee Herrera. N? wif-' W'l f or most clubs and activities the first meeting is a couple weeks after school starts, but not for the Junior Varsity and Varsity Spiritline. Practicing as a squad for the first time on June 8, they put in two hours every morning Monday through Friday as they prepared for cheer camp the last week of July. Then they regrouped just in time to prepare for a year full of changes. The first of many changes was the absence of boys on the cheerline. Mrs. Stacey Valenzuela, cheer sponsor, explained, This was my first time as an advisor, and l just wanted to get my feet wet. l wanted to get a feel for the pros and cons of having an all girls line. Another change for the girls was that a new emphasis was -l I 3 placed on cheers, and less on dancing. Both the administration and Mrs. Valenzuela felt that the line had been getting away from the purpose of a cheerline. Probably the biggest transition of the year is the fact that the football and basketball cheerlines are one and the same. The transition is difficult because basketball moves faster, so chants must flow smoothly and be shorter. Keeping up with the game takes more concentration. Because of the incorporation of the lines, and not enough time to prepare properly, it was decided that the line wouldn't compete, so they could concentrate on their cheering. Then they would wait until next year, when it will be possible to add male members. 97 n 3.v.s-gritty-we - - 4:4 J V Spiritline Front Row- Becky Juarez, Carrie Kimes, Brandi Deleon.
