Spirit . . . S irit was evident at all football anclnbasketball games. The cheer- leaders drew support for the teams and raised enthusiasm to a contagious level with new cheers and a new style. Comprised mostly of seniors, this year's varsity squad discarded conventional routines and mov- ed instead toward a refreshing dance trend. They achieved per- fect synchronization, which was essential, as they cooridinated their movements to some new songs by the marching and pep bands. Their vivacious attitudes were contagious and contributed to the enjoyment of athletic e- vents. Donna Vigil was a late sea- son addition. The lV cheerleaders were most- lym new to cheerleading, with only t ree veterans. Although they lacked experience, they more than compensated with abun- dant spirit. Intense practice ses- sions during summer and after school transformed a group of relative novices into a group of disciplined professionals that dis- played genuine talent. A cut back in funding due to Prop 13 eliminated freshman sports and therefore freshman c eerleaders. The answer to this dilemma, however, was a group of young spiritleaders comprised of enterin freshman. Debbie Block, Catlilmy Brubaker, Cindy Roach, Michelle Stoudt, Lisa Hol- den and Pam Dutenhoeffer made up this squad. They pitched in at Homecoming and gave assem- blies an extra boost of support.
