 Cheerleaders Boost Warriors The people who work the hardest at sup- porting our athletic teams are the cheer- leaders. It is their job to spark spirit into a crowd of fans and to lead the crowd in sup- porting our teams. To carry out this job, they experiment with new ideas. This year, the cheerleaders worked out some new chants and cheers to echo the times. One that incorporated the slang of today was—“Bump and Boogie.” Often, the weather or lack of spirit cause the crowd to be small. Even though only a few supporters may show up, the cheerleaders do their best to accomplish their job. They retain their spirit and en- thusisam at these disappointing times and continue to boost our Warrior teams to victory. J C. Freshmen cheerleaders, Sandy Gindling, Linda Williams and Tina Shipp hacked the freshmen at all their athletic events. I I. Reserve cheerleaders, (TOP to BOTTOM) Julia Frazier. Dawn Warner, Sherri Fickes and Nancy Speckin were all newcomers to the reserve squad. . Junior Debbie Moore suffered several minor in- juries during the year, but managed to keep up her spirit and enthusiasm for the Warriors. . Booster Club supported the Warrior teams under the leadership of the varsity cheerleaders, who led cheers enthusiastically and with spirit. CHEERLEADERS 29
