Cheerleaders

CHEER ON!

By: Saleena Hickey and Staff

After recovering somewhat from the restrictions of last year, the Burrell Cheerleaders are looking forward to cheering on through their long season since they support many fall and winter sports. The cheerleaders, along with the student section, have been able to shine bright on football nights with the hope to continue the spirit into the winter sport season. The squad this year is a close-knit group who works really well together and has so much fun doing it. Junior Hanna Thomas said, “I have really enjoyed the season so far. I really like being together as a squad. The atmosphere is energizing, and we have so much fun.” Sophomore Morgan Swahn said, “I like how happy I am cheering with my friends on the squad.” In addition to cheering, the squad also supports the community through their Mini Cheer Camp for Bon Air students, who cheer with them at the end of the camp, and sponsoring a Pink Out which happens every October (this year is 10/15) to support local cancer patients and their families. Let’s give a shout out to the cheerleaders who as leaders in school spirit continue the call of Let’s Go BUCS!
