Demon Pep Real Crowd Pleaser Cheering is a vital part of every athletic event. Sometimes the crowds are very small. Many times there is little to cheer about, but in front of the fans, the squad of girls enthusiastically encourage the team. The freshmen squad began practices shortly before school started and quickly molded into a unit. Although the group did not attend a camp, they were taught new cheers by the sophomore squad. The girls had quite a time. Many times at out-of-town games, the only Hall spectators were parents of the players. They were still able to keep the spirits up. The Demon squad rooted for sophomore teams. The group of girls began to practice the week before school started. Routines were developed to go with their various cheers. The motto of the girls was “practice makes perfect.” It seems that all of their free time was spent practicing. As the season progressed, the routines became polished. The girls were real crowd pleasers because of the caliber of the cheers. The cheerleaders were under the guidance of Ms. Anderson and Mrs. Wolf, who both expressed pleasure with the results of the year’s activities.
