KO cheers on everyone
Keystone Oaks cheerleadersLast Friday Night! ..
After a dull, dragging week of obnoxious school work, suddenly the students find themselves traveling full speed ahead to the long awaited weekend! For some this means the end of school, followed by a long therapeutic secession of Netflix. However for others, this is just the start of a weekend tradition as old as the high school itself. That's right, it's GAMEDAY, throw on your lucky socks, get your game face on, and come to life as the Eagles battle it out with another team! The players are ready, the band is marching onto the field, the fans are huddled in their corner, and everyone is fired up!... Except we've seem to have forgotten some very important people.

They Cheer You On, Now Let's Hear it for them!...
So who did I miss? Well if you set your gaze to the sidelines as of recent, it be hard not to notice the three rows of uniformed girls jetting out from the student section. Keystone Oaks, I present you the Golden Eagles Varsity cheerleading squad! Well, the cheerleaders are just a cliché football thing right? HA, WRONG! A cheerleader’s day doesn't end after the boys of fall, especially at Keystone Oaks. The girls typically cheer through summer boot camp, fall football, winter basketball and wrestling, and competition in the spring. That's right, folks, a whole year of cheer. Bringing to the field countless cheers, several band dances, high flying stunts, and untamable energy, the cheerleaders tackle the Friday night routine like a boss.
Speaking of bosses, let's talk about our senior cheerleaders. This year is by far one of the most interesting for the upperclassman. On the squad currently there are ten soon to be graduating seniors. Ten girls! That have all nearly served at least two years cheering for KO. That's one way to spell out commitment. After attending a practice, I asked the girls to respond to the following survey, below are their answers.
