by Bob Kasunic Two-four-six-eight! Who do we appreciate? ... the cheerleaders and fans, that's who. “This year's cheerleading squad was great,'' said Senior Chris Shea. “They were a definite inspiration to the team and really got the fans going. The cheerleaders proved to be a driving force this year. They were at all the games, even in the worst weather. We enjoyed the gratitude we got from it, said Captain Michelle Rini. “We especially felt the spirit of the fans this year. This year's squad included the following: Gina Stoessner, Michelle Massa, Deanna Lombardo, Michelle Rini, Shannon Jackson, and Lynette Matey from Beaumont, Nikki DeCaro and Patti Webb from Reeina, and Lynnette Pizmoht from Notre Dame. “It was excitine going to the playoffs and cheering on the team, said Cheerleader Deanna Lombardo. “It gave us a chance to show our spirit. The fans are not to be forgotten, either. They helped cheer the team down to Akron in the semi-finals. The season was exciting for everyone — cheerleaders, students, and the loyal fans who were always there to spread the name of Benedictine. ROAR! This year found the emergence of a new Captain Bengal who helped cheer the team on. FANS WERE ABUNDANT at this year's games; they supported the team all the way to the playoffs.

community benefits by Pat Gennarclli What cannot be said about the 1984-85 Student Council? A numerous array of activities and new ideas can be mentioned about the participation and the contribution of the Student council to the community and students. To the community, the Student Council gave its attention through the Service Committee endowed by the Council. The members of the Service Committee were Dennis Spuzzillo, Joe Browne, Anthony Russo, and Preston Hrisko. They rasied large amounts of money for a nursing home in Cleveland. The committee again sponsored a food drive during Thanksgiving which was given to the poor. A very important drive involved the donation of 1,000 items to the East End Neighborhood House. The Spirit Committee was composed of Dan Nauman, Tony St. John, Chris Shea, Pat Gennarelli, and Brian English. This committee organized buses to football games, showed a movie ( Murder by Death ) during Christmas, put on a talent show, and arranged, funded, and sponsored the Homecoming Dance. The Christian Committee which is composed of Mike lacofano, John Kocevar, and Dave Mozina have arranged for prayer to be said during luncn and, had the student exchange between St. Ignatius and I.ake Catholic. This was also the year that the qualifications for Mr. B w'ere improved. The council has, by suggestion of the Senior Class of 1986, decided to repair the slowly deteriorating B” in front of the school. GENNARELLI, NAUMAN, AND KOCEVAR try their luck with the girls at Lake Catholic during a Student Exchange day. MEMBERS OF THE STU-DENT COUNCIL: (Seated, 1 to r) M. lacofano, J. Browne, D. Nauman, L.
