The j.v. cheerleaders had a great
year from the very beginning. Even
during the summer, they were very
successful. The entire team was nomi­
nated for All American. Although
there were only seven cheerleaders
that finished out the year, the squad
had just as many accomplishments as
the other squads that had twice as
many members. When asked what
competition surprised her the most,
sophomore Lisa Tostenson said, "Our
River Cities competition was prob­
ably the most interesting , as well as
stressful! We had one girl get sick the
night before, so we had to change our
formations the morning before the
competition. Even with all of those
changes, and without one of our
squad members, we were still able to
T h e j.v. c h e e rle a d e rs
place 2nd!" Tostenson also said that
cheer the Ram s on at a
the squad had their share of argu­ basketb all gam e. The
ments, but everyone on the squad is squad had to cheer not
good friends. Everyone was dedi­ only at j.v. gam es, but
cated and worked hard when they a lso at v a rs ity and
needed to. "Cheerleading has taught sophom ore gam es.
us responsibility and how to work
together."
