Summer practices paid off in competition The Monday after school closed, 14 devoted girls began a summer of learn- ing and practices that would result in a highly respected football cheerleading squad. The first honor acquired by the squad was the Award of Excellence. The squad was chosen for this award from 16 other squads for best perfor- mance of learned cheers and spirit at the Pocono Sports Camp. The second award presented to the squad took place August 29, at the Sus- quehanna Valley Mall Competition, where once again the Shikellamy girls captured first place. According to Pa- trice McNichol, squad captain, Win- ning the Mall Competition tops off those hot exhausting summer prac- tices.” Upon returning to school, the girls practiced every Thursday after school. These practices provided for the comi- cal skits and funky dance routines viewed at the Friday pep assemblies. The squad proved to be excellent through their competitions but were best appreciated at HOME cheering the Shikellamy Braves on to victory. (Top) Freshmen Cheerleaders — Front: S. Yordy. Middle: C.
