The cheerleaders have had a bumpy road these past few years. They lost the majority of their squad two years ago after an incident that led to the termination of the program. Now, the somewhat newly assembled team is ready to pump some spirit into the stands at the Homecoming game at the end of the month (see above).
As what might have been witnessed at previous games, the cheerleaders have a little something new this year that has been lacking in past – skill.
“With the combo of our tumbling, lots of practice, and stunting it has made everyone at Terrace take the team more seriously this year,” Jenna Donahue, senior newbie and one of the Tumbling Duo, said. “I think everyone is taking more interest.”
The other part of the Tumbling Duo is Marissa Danekas, junior newbie and retired gymnast.
“There isn’t a [gymnastics team] here. This is the only way I can sort of get back into that,” Danekas said. “It’s a lot of fun.”
Though the tumblers bring a certain flair, all of the team’s new found success is not solely their doing.
“I don’t think the tumblers have been the defining factor in what has improved the team,” cheer coach Kacee Jensen said. “I think overall, each member has added and worked really hard to make the team what it is; the tumblers just add the frosting on top.”
