Pride Helps ep Squad lot of experience and pride helped make last year one of the best for the Pep Squad. Margie Preble said, I feel excited and proud in of front the crowd representing my school, cheering at a sporting event. The Pep Squad cheered for S.R.'s two major sports: basketball and football. Lots of hard practice everyday from 7:00 to 8:40 a.m. produc- ed well-polished routines and cheers to get the crowd rowdy and spirited at each game. Much experience helped Margie Pre- ble and Sandy Nielson in leadership and acting out cheers and routines. I have been a cheerleader for three years, one withj.V., and I am in my second year on Varsity, commented Sandy Nielson. Preble stated 'II was a cheerleader at Secrist for two years and this is my first year on Varsity. Preble thought that being on the swim team had helped con- dition her for cheerleading. Some cheerleaders set goals before last season. Preble said, I hope to get the crowd more rowdy this year and im- prove my skills. I will try to be more enthusiastic in front of the crowd and promote spirit in the crowd and at every game we cheer at, said Nielson. Most of the cheerleaders said they admire and liked Miss Drudge, the Pep Squad ad- visor for nine years. They also said she had patience, and was understanding in getting their routines and cheers organized. When I am out there cheering I work as hard as possible and it takes a lot out of me, said Preble. They all tried their best to get the satisfaction of getting the crowd spirited. Crowd participation added to school spirit. l!Bn sem-or it 'KY Cheers-Front Row: Kelli Williamson, Tracy Sherman, Tina Kirstein, Margie Preble, Sandy Nielson, Debra Conolly, Debbie Nelson, Leslie Smith.
