M ' - ' -1 ■ 1 j FL j Hf BS Ki l i Changes did not hurt the cheerleaders. One significant change was the hiring of a new coach. A senior at MSU, Melanie Brink was a former Holt cheerleader and a 1980 graduate. It was difficult at first to adjust to new rules and expectations of a different adviser. The girls had an early start this year. Both squads worked hard at summer camps. The JV attended Michigan State University while Varsity went to Central Michigan. Later that summer, early morning practices paid off In national competition the Varsity Cheerleaders placed 26th in cheering and third , in skit. Senior Lisa Gafner topped Holt ' s individual competition record, placing 22nd while senior Debbie Shassberger placed 27th. The JV Cheerleaders faced the fall challenge of getting football crowds enthused and spirited. A six person squad was a set back, but I think we did an excellent job, explained sophomore Debbie VanDenBrink. Senior Andrea Zainglein summed up the feelings about the season, Cheering this year has been a lot of fun and we really enjoyed working with Coach Brink, she said. PEP ASSEMBL Y TIME!
