By Kiera Jones Hugo High School Student Reporter A group of 10 girls with 10 different personalities is thrown together for hours each week. They are required to run, exercise, practice and yell. Hugo High School cheerleaders have a very tough job. Hugo High cheerleaders believe people do not realize how much time, pain and practice they put into their sport. They believe cheerleading is a sport because they are doing just what athletes do. They have to practice to become perfect, there are injuries and they, too, can receive scholarships for their hard work. Our cheerleaders practice every morning for an hour and a half and every evening for two hours. This constant routine is called two-a-days. A current Hugo High School cheerleader is injured so it is making stunts difficult to learn. When asked what their goals were for this year, the cheerleaders said, “Our current goal is to always have the crowd pumped during every football game.” Coach Angie Citty is excited about this year, and she feels she has a good team. Citty believes her cheerleaders can energize and pump up the crowds and players alike. When you attend the next game or pep rally make sure and notice how hard the cheerleaders are working to support every team. |
