The tryouts started off with Coach Munsinger introducing herself and stating, “Coach LuAnn will no longer be coaching due to health issue.” She then went on to say that they were in the process of looking for a new co-coach for the team. Even with this sad news for the veterans, the tryouts continued as normal. Once seated, each girl took their turn at stating their names so they could become familiar with each other.
When every girl got done introducing herself, Coach Munsinger divided the girls into three groups that included newbies and veterans. Audrey Ford commented, “It was comforting to know you would have veterans showing you the cheers so you wouldn’t have to learn them yourself.” The veterans had to teach the girls four new cheers: “Shamrocks Got the Fever,” “Shamrocks Lets Do it,” “We Are the Shamrocks and We’ll Ugh Knock You Out,” and “Big G Little O.” To show off their creativity, the girls had to come up with new movements for the cheer “Shamrocks Got the Fever.”
Once the girls were comfortable with the cheers, the tryouts begin. Each group was called up one at a time and performed their cheers as a group, except for “Big G Little O,” which was performed individually. When the cheers were done, each girl showed off her two best jumps and had the option to tumble.
The tryouts ended with Coach Munsinger thanking the girls for coming and stating that the results would be posted on the office window Friday morning.
The 2015-2016 NHHS cheerleading squad is made up of Jennifer Alvarez, Stephanie Russo, Emily Moreno, Emily Lewis, Lexie Nixon, LeeAnna Linton, Megan Boehmer, Audrey Ford, Mikayla Maloney, Lexi Otterer, and Grace Soete.
New cheerleader Mikayla Maloney exclaimed, “It was an interesting experience, and I am glad I got in because I have been waiting to tryout since day one. I would encourage others to do it because it’s fun.”
With this year ending and another beginning, New Haven High’s cheerleading team is ready to start a great season with the addition of five new cheerleaders.
