They Are Small But Spirited What is small in number but big in spirit? The answer is the 1983-84 Wrestlerette Squad. The squad, the smallest to date with only six girls, had to cheer twice as loud and have twice as much en- thusiasm in the wrestling meets. This wasn't a challenge for them, as they had previously won two out of the five categories in a Phoenix compe- tition for the Most Enthusiastic and Most Spirited. The Wrestlerettes promoted en' thusiasm among the wrestlers through a secret brother program. Each girl had a brother or brothers for whom they did special things, including making treats, or signs to wish them luck in their meets. The Wrestlerettes also had fund raisers to help pay for their uniforms which each girl had to buy herself. The girls, supervised by lfwlliam Bell, had to endure their busy schedules of practicing after school three times a week, plus cheering at wrestling meets twice a week. lt may have been rough, but their work paid off in their performances.

Playing The Best With Less Intensity filled the air. The crowd si- lenced, all eyes concentrating with wonder. Hearing mixed sounds of strings and Woodwinds, the audience knew the time had arrived for an unfor- gettable performance by the Sabino or- chestra. Conducted by Ms. Pierce, Sabino's new orchestra director, the orchestra presented many successful and memo- rable performances. People all over Tucson were treated to these superb performances, which were performed alone and with other orchestras from neighboring schools. Orchestra students practiced dili- gently each day second period in order to be able to participate in perfor- mances such as NAU Commencement, Regional Orchestras, Regional Audi- tions, and All State and All Star Com- petitions, as well as for personal satis- faction. Along with the hard work al- ways came the enjoyment and excite- ment after a performance. lt was never known what they would be up to next. The orchestra, consisting of only 15 students, made the best of what they had. The orchestra is small, but good, complimented Ms. Pierce. No matter the size, we have been well re- presented this year by a great orches- tra. By Kristine Crowther Photos by lennifer Terrill Melodies and haramonies of the orchestra combine to perfection.
