Junior Varsity Results

 

Annie Savage
Grade: Freshman
Experience: One year on Freshman squad
“I really like the stunting in cheer,” Savage said. “It’s the best feeling in the world when your stunt group masters a new skill. My old stunt group and I did a push-up into a lip and it was the best feeling in the world. We try to do it every game. I’m also looking forward to a new coach, new girls and new stunts. I also can’t wait to cheer in front of big crowds.”

 

Danya Issawi

“I like getting to spend a lot of time with friends and getting really close to each other, and cheering at the games is really fun,” Issawi said. “I was much calmer and more relaxed [at tryouts] this year; last year we were all freaking out. I can’t wait to have Lindsey as our coach. She has a ton of great ideas and is really easy to talk to.”

I really hate tryouts but I like when you get done because there’s a rush of relief before you over-think how you did. I’m really excited about the girls and the fun activities next year. Lindsey got the freshmen this year so I’m hoping that will transfer over and make the whole program a fun experience.”

 

Maria Dunn
