♦ ♦ ♦ Give Me An S ft Give me an $” was a famous cheer used by the McConnellsburg High School cheerleaders. They used it as a spirit booster at the big games to arouse fan support. The cheerleaders were divided into two squads. Each squad consisted of six enthusiastic girls. Under the super- vision of Janice Cutchall and Tina Wa- shabaugh. these girls made up many new and interesting cheers, pyramids, and stunts. They also learned new cheers at summer camp. The Varsity squad went to NCA camp at Hood Col- lege in Frederick. MD. The J.V. squad attended camp at Shippensburg State College. Junior High Cheerleaders were a big part of the season. These girls were divided into two squads also. They cheered at the Jr. High boys' home games. With this experience, many of them were looking forward to trying out for the J.V. squad next year. Overall, the year proved to be a re- warding and fulfilling year. The Varsity squad lost three seniors at the end of the year. Even though these valuable girls were lost, the squad continued to shine on, as always before.
