This past Wednesday the wildcats cheer team had the opportunity to travel to East Rockingham High school to compete in a district practice competition. Unlike previous competitions the cheer team faced several deficits.

Three members of the wildcat team were out with injuries: Senior Heidi Schwarzmann, Senior Sarah Allen and Sophomore Addison Flint. This meant that the routine that the Wildcats had planned had to be adjusted. Junior Chelsey Hall stepped up and learned a new routine for the Wildcats. With Hall’s hard work the team was able to put up a good fight against the other teams at Rockingham. Spotswood High School came out on top winning the competition. Second place went to Wilson Memorial High School and third place was East Rockingham High School.

Although the cheer team did not place the way they had hoped, they will have a chance to redeem themselves at their next competition on Sept 28 at Spotswood High School.

About the Writer

Nicolas Vargas is a first year journalism student with little experience in the journalism field. You could say THE Nicolas Vargas is a noob. Nicolas Vargas was told that this class would be helping the school with “new paper” whatever that is. Maybe by the end of the year he will have figured out what that is. If not, the interweb should be able to help him. This probably makes one wonder if Nicolas Vargas has a life? Well yes, yes he does. Outside of school Nicolas Vargas is the average teenager: tired, lazy and boring… Kidding! Nicolas Vargas enjoys spending every minute of his life doing something. “Laying around” is not in his vocabulary. Nicolas Vargas enjoys playing sports of all varieties and doing almost all activities that involve the great outdoors. The only time he chooses to be in the great expanse of his own home is when he is playing Fifa (soccer video game). Where he claims to be the best in the house, the key word here is “claims”. He chooses not to surrender his dignity to his younger brother. By now you have probably figured out a little bit about who Nicolas Vargas is. If you are so fortunate as to run into him at one point in your life asking “how’s the new paper going?”, by then he should give you his autograph.
