The Varsity Cheerleaders began an early sea¬ son raising money and practicing cheers. By the time the first game came around, we were ready to trave and cheer our Cavaliers to vic¬ tory! All through the season we sold ribbons to promote school spirit. There were an¬ nouncements made on the intercom either on school spirit or about an upcoming game. Then there were our enthusiastic pep rallies including the band, skits, and spiritstick competition. Coach Styles presents Garland Davis with a certificate. Heading for six points. The most exciting event to take place was the Homecoming game and pep rally. We worked very hard to make the first Home¬ coming the best. There was a parade, pow- derpuff football game and the burning of the Gretna dummy. Our sponsor Miss Charlotte Cook was won¬ derful during the entire season. She went along with everything we wanted to do. Miss Cook gave us a lot of time and preparation for everything. Thank you! The cheerleaders shared joy and laughter af¬ ter a victory and tears and sorrow after a loss. No matter where we went, we were proud to say that we were from Jefferson Forest. At the beginning of the season, I told Coach Styles that we wouldn’t let him down and I hope we didn’t. We were behind our Cav¬ aliers and coaches the whole time. We love our school and always will! Mary Jane Hughes Players rush to the aid of a teammate. Head Coach Glen Styles and manager Wayne Whitworth seem to be pondering the actions of some players. 13

For the first time, our players, coaches, and entire student body got to experience vic¬ tory. It has been said that score doesn’t determine good or bad. But it’s hard to tell that to 1,000 disappointed students and 30 tired players. The season was ended with two wins and eight losses. Three games were lost by only six points. One of the most admirable traits of this group was that they did not give up. Determi¬ nation was a great asset to the team. Although they were not as imified as last year, they improved steadily. Attitudes were good. Who knows, if they keep at this speed, next year maybe they’ll double the wins! The defense holds hack anxious opposition from scoring. Steve Callaham starts the second half of the Nelson Co. game. 12
