eing a Drill Team member during foot- ball season means coming in early and leaving late, for there are many obliga- tions to fulfill. Majorette Kristen Neve said My parents like what l'm doing! Kristen could possibly be called the main attraction at many half-time shows throughout the year. These performances require the know how to be energetic, to coordinate hand and foot movement, and to generate much ex- citement. The advisor, Cindy Stoffel, has this knowledge and the talent to teach it. Her hard work and efforts have paid off with the girls winning a first place award in the Homecoming Parade. ln addition to her instruction, the members attended a three day camp at UCSB. Camp was great! said four year member Kellie Mahan. Despite the muscle tiring workouts, friendships were built that will last a lifetime. With the appre- ciation of athletes and fans, they perform at half-time shows and do concerts with the stage band. Along with marching in the pa- rade at the Baywood Festival, they sold strawberries to raise funds for their new uni- forms. All the hard work will pay off when the top ten members of the team put on an extravagant performance in Disneyland at the end of the year. Being a wrestlerette means keeping statis- tics, working the clocks, and spending countless hours turning feminine voices into masculine growls. At first, keeping statistics is confusing, but when you learn what a ta- kedown, nearfall, and an escape are, it be- comes very easy and fun. Working the clock gives an intense feeling when it's the last period with only five seconds left. We're not cheerleaders, say the girls. We repre- sent the wrestlers and we strongly believe in what we are doing. One of the best benefits of being a wrestlerette comes with the spe- cial friendships that develop and grow with the season. 136 Spirit

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.
