Making The Sacrifice For Spirit he road to being a cheerleader is long and very diffi- cult. Starting last May, the cheerleading hopefuls went through a demanding testing and evaluation pro- cess with the final selections being made by the Cal Poly spirit squad. After that, summer meant practices from eight to ten o'clock in the morning, five and sometimes six days a week! In fact, the only break they received was the Unit- ed Spirit Association camp in July. But in many ways, this was the toughest part of the 1985-86 season. Having virtual- ly no free time, the girls attended workshops and competed against other schools in various tests of spirit. And at the conclusion of the seemingly endless three days, the Morro Bay varsity squad came away with four superior awards in the events of Take-and-Give, Game Action, Attitude, and Home Cheer. ln addition, they were awarded two spirit sticks and a trophy for superiority, the highest rating given. Of course, it was not all hard work. Mary Hudson, setting an unofficial record, managed to stuff forty-eight grapes intc her mouth at once! Being a cheerleader includes more than most people think. Besides cheering at every football, volleyball, soccer and basketball match, each of the girls spent about S5350 tc pay for the cost of uniforms, camp, and spirit decorations Besides that, practices are more than three hours a weel for the majority of the year! Growing out of almost nothing, this year's Pirate Spiri' Club is a force to behold. Mostly the work of Sherril Spent cer, this is one of the largest spirit associations to even come to MBHS. The spirit is here , said Laura Tremblay the group's advisor, it just needs to be organized ant focused. Besides making excesses of noise, they contri bute much to our school by letting the players know tha' they are winners, regardless of the score. x -max.. 'S ,..ff W-gg, sfwqp. .

Susie Urtiz, the 1985-1986 mascot, is probably the most often seen yet least often known member of the cheerleading squad. She wears the huge pirate outfit that was purchased last year with cheerleader and ASB funds. Page 135. 1. Pirate Spirit. FRONT ROW: P. Woodman. H. Sawyer, M. Speakman. S. Urtiz, D. Ruehr.
