Up And Coming Athletes Dedication to school and sports is the incentive needed for freshmen and sophomores to play JV sports. The JV softball and baseball teams as well as the JV cheerleaders took the time and effort necessary to express this dedication. The JV softball team, coached by Mrs. Alexander en- joyed playing and learning to- gether. Said sophomore Candy Mays, Everybody gets along with everybody and we seem to have our act together. I think we'1l play well. Patsy Marcus also said, I think we'll do great this season because we work well together and we have confi- dence in each other. Though they work hard under the coaching of Mike Bowman, the JV baseball team is learning and enjoying it. Said sophomore Joe Roberts, I'm playing JV be- cause I just want to play ball. The coach is strict but he'll teach us something, he'Il make us have a good attitude. Because they work well together as a team, these guys expect a good season in return for their hard work and time. Said sophomore Richard I-Iarrison, I think we'll do pretty good if we can iron out the little things that cause errors. Finally, a JV sport that is usu- ally forgotten as a sport is JV cheerleading. The girls on the JV squad contend with the prob- lems of no recognition and no crowd to cheer for. Despite .I . fri x ,xg ,..g:.

If I get the chance I may try out for Varsity but I would be just as happy to be on JV again. Sophomore Alison Vogler also said, W cheer for football and basketball and promote school spirit. It was fun getting the first Junior Var isty squad organized. The JV baseball, Softball, and cheerleading squads are willing to take the time necessary to be good at what they do, even if there is no glory involved. It will all pay off, though, for even the greatest of all athletes had to start off small, in order to be up and coming athletes. Competition JV Cheerleaders: M. Stubbs, C. Pinkston, K. Gillis, K.

Seabrooks, Above The Rest Determined to get Bobcat spirit off to a good start, 14 ath- letes began working over the summer for a sport that would last all winter - cheerleading. Though most people believe that cheerleading is all glamour, those who cheer know different- ly. As sophomore, Angie Miller, said, I wouldn't exactly call it glamour, there's a lot of hard work that each cheerleader has to take part in to make things come out right.', The varsity squad participat- ed in many out side activities to achieve a certain style that best represents Glenn. They took part in the Universal Cheer- leaders Association camp at UNC in Chapel Hill from which they brought home several awards for technique and spirit. The cheerleaders also attended clinics at West Forsyth High School and WFU. The squad T ltit also cheered for the Lady Dea- cons and at the Frank Spencer Classic. The Cheerleaders' main goal is to arouse fan participation and achieve overall school spirit. Cheerleaders are there for the teams when they win to help celebrate, and when they lose - to pick them back up. The job doesn't end with the game, though: For example, many times, the cheerleaders cheered all the way home cele- brating Bobcat victories with the teams. Added to these times, long, tiring hours are spent prac- ticing and perfecting cheers and difficult stunts. Cheerleading is a time-con- suming sport, but as junior Ce- leste Short said, Knowing that the crowd is behind you and sup- porting the team makes it all worthwhile. . ,W Varsity Cheerleaders K Routh Arthur, L.
