Cheers, Chants, and Pyramids Six superior ribbons and three spirit sticks made the Stillwater summer clinic worth the time and effort of the cheerleaders. Cheers, chants, and pyr- amids were learned at clin- ic but competition was most enjoyed by all the cheerleaders. It's really exciting when you've worked on something and finally get to compete, said Lisa Cobb. I actually feel that the cheerleaders are the core of the school spirit and at times others are influenced by the spirit these girls generate, said Mrs. Bethers. Mrs, Bethers, our spon- sor was the greatest, said Vanessa Cruz. Mrs. IMITATION. The cheerleaders and officers tell a few tales about some of the football players. CHEERLEADERS. Front Row: T.

Lots of hard work and long hours of practice made cheerleading a suc- cess. It was a lot of hard work, but also very fun, said Beth Blackburn. I loved cheerleading, but after football season was over, school spirit real- ly went down, said Dosha Masterson. The crowd's enthusiasm was very important to the cheerleaders, even though they felt the students were self-oriented and didn't understand how nervous they were. Weekends and after school time was ususally used for the cheerleaders to practice for the upcoming assemblies. OFFICERS. Front Row: H. Engle Qv.p.J, . Nash Qfresh. sgt. at armsj, R.

Soaring Spirits Make Winners Whether it was wrestling, bas- ketball, football, track, swim- ming, or cheerleading, sports took time and effort. Sometimes that time and effort seemed worthless when it involved running in the cold or long workouts in the sum- mer heat. Being introduced at a pep assembly or scoring the win- ning point made the long hours of practice seem like nothing. Combining football teams with Moore West was one major change made. This was to prepare football players for playing at the high school and to avoid any hard feelings. Going to sports events and be- ing onthe winning side was excit- ing, whether player or spectator. Losing made the next win even more exciting. Win or lose, pep club and cheerleaders were always there to boost spirits with their enthusiasm. Being involved in a sport meant sometimes to give up a lot of free time to practicing with the team. But in the end, being a part of a team made it all worthwhile. SIDE STEP.
