'NWA by Kent Wisenor ,ff Phnlo Although cheerleading may look like fun and games, junior Patrish Trent takes her spirit leading seriously. l feel l have to dedicate much of my time in order to achieve my greatest potential, said Trent. Trents dedication managed to take her all the way to the Hula Bowl in Hawaii. Here she per- formed in the pre-game and halftime shows, along with sidel- ine cheers during the game. ln order to have participated in this event Trent had to place within the top six at the All American Cheerleading Associ- ation cheerleading competition at Sonoma high school in Octob- er. At this particular competition Trent competed in the catagories of dance, chant, and a perform- ance cheer. l like the dance catagory best because you can express your style of cheering and your per- Cheerle partlcl in Hula sonality can shine through, ex- plained Trent. The preliminary competition at Sonoma, not only allowed Trent to absorb a tan in Hawaii, it qualified her for nationals at Charlotte, North Carolina in March. ln the future Trent plans to attend University of Hawaii to major in sports medicine. by Robyn Rosselli 294 O 1-W 1 are -. fi' JV Fel

My mom just asked me one day if l would like to take riding lessons, and l said alright, said Fry. 'Then after riding for aw- hile, my trainer asked me to show the horse since l seemed to get along with it so well. Fry has won many awards in his five years of showing, and competes whenever he can. l've been to the Cow Palace in San Francisco, and events in Santa Rosa too, he said. He also said that he competed at the State Fair two years ago, and did very well. At the State Fair, l won two second places. With it being a three-day show, Fry was able to pick up two awards. ln competing at the Cow Pa- lace, Fry said that he has won two first place finishes, and at Santa Rosa, one first place finish. Most of the shows take place in the spring, he said. 'fThere are also many little events that take place in the area, such as the Clements Stampede. With five years of competing under his belt, Fry still was unde- cided on whether or not he would like to continue showing horses in the future. 'll don't know, he said. lt's still early, and l've got plenty of time to think aboutit. by Tim Skamel Freshmen 293
