CHEERLEADER’S LAMENT She is filled with such joy and excitement from the moment she's picked. To think such an honor was given to her. She practices hard and gives all she's got, Because to be a cheerleader means an awful lot. Her first game excites her so She almost forgets to yell Go team go! But through it all she keeps a smile. She knows she must keep fans yelling all the while. She works hard on posters for the games. To create school spirit is for what she aims. She never thinks of losing a game. But when the time comes she cheers just the same. She never says it was his fault or his. Because she knows they gave all they could give. To help her team she always remains cool. No matter what the score, she knows they'll pull through. When her team wins the trophy there's tears in her eyes. Because she's so proud to have cheered for those guys. How do I know what a cheerleader's like??? I've been one for a year, the best year of my life, by Pamela Lothert A-TEAM CHEERLEADERS: CLOCKWISE, TOP RIGHT - Teri Crain, Val Koupal, Pam Lothert, Becky Lund, Laurie Hjulberg. After many hours of hard work, the cheerleaders finally succeed- ed in producing their first calendar which was sold for assisting in the purchase of new uniforms. Up the Spirit was the motto of the cheerleaders. With many hours of practice under the direction of Mr. Lenzen, their advisor, and plenty of coaching and yelling, the mighty Tigers had the best backing of any team in the conference. The A team will remember the chilly evenings at away football games and the sweating moments of the basketball games. Each and every cheerleader will savor the thought that they aided the team spirit enough to win and shed their tears in the losses. JUNIOR HIGH CHEERLEADERS: CLOCKWISE, TOP RIGHT - Colleen Pam, Teri, Val, and Laurie give their all to lead the crowd in cheer- ing the team on to another victory.
