(SD POM-POM SQUAD The 1st pom-pom squad was formed in 1966 and was known as the Pantherette Drill Corps. They performed at home football games and marched in three parades. In later years they began performing at Basketball games. Then, in 1972, the group split into two groups; Drill Corps for football, and Pom-Poms for Basketball. In 1973, the two squads were again made one and were called the LeRoy Pom-Pom squad, wearing maroon and gold uniforms and using strictly pom-poms in their shows. L-RRow 1: K. Bruce, S. Walker.
