Cheerleaders Cheering For Success Determination was the major key to unlocking the door of success for the 1985-86 cheerleading squad at PHS. The squad consisted of two returning senior members — Jill Eary, who served as head cheerleader, and Kami Kaatz. Senior Anna Chlapek and juniors Pam Prevost, Shannon Lee, Vicki Wenzel, Tanja Cox, and Tammy Senkel were the first-year members of the determined group of spirit promoters. Starting from scratch was the main idea behind the girls' practicing, but their determination allowed them to overcome any obstacle. While cheering at the Homecoming game, determination warmed them in the cold winds; it served as a raincoat for them during the rainy, but exciting game at Kyle Field in Bryan College Station, and it stuck by them after the devastating blow that was deliv- ered by House Bill 72's No Pass-No Play rule. Working so closely together this year made us all come to realize that it takes quite a lot of time, determination, and dedication to work as one . . . but we did it! summed up Vicki Wenzel. The squad's determination guided them through sweating and working out at summer camp, creating the football game breakthrough signs, and promot- ing school spirit in all shapes, sizes, and forms. Junior Shannon Lee stated, What I enjoyed the most were the little things we did for all the athletes. The door of success is now closed be- hind the young squad, but they will al- ways remember how often that door was continually unlocked by one particular key — DETERMINATION! I. Jill Eary happily lifted Tanja Cox to new heights while cheering at a Friday night football game. 2.

Although the cheer- leaders seemed to always be in high spirits, they often expressed other emotions, as shown by Pam Prevost's far-away look, and Tammy Senkel's wist- ful glance. 6. Shannon Lee and Jill Eary shared a secret thought while they took a break from cheer- ing at Kyle Field in Bryan College Station.
