Blend: Spunky, spicy, flamboyant, elite teams, jamming band, kicking drill, excitement, chant and cheers, and Alma Mater. Mix for twenty min- utes in sweaty confinement . . . oh, yes, be sure to add a heap o' spirited cheerleaders . . . Cheerleading is a continuous activity dependent upon collective student body cooperation. Lack of spirit exemplified by an apathetic student body contributed to disappointing displays of school pride. As a result, few dedicated cheerleaders remained to cheer in the spring, a marked contrast to the enthusiasm of previous years. Despite this uncharacteristic disunity prior to Christmas, cheerleaders did an admirable job when called upon to represent the school and community.
