BMS CHEERLEADERS<br />
You got the spirit? Let’s hear it! The <strong>Badger</strong> Middle School cheerleaders bring out the<br />
spirit in the fans at the basketball games. Their sideline cheers remind the basketball players<br />
that they have the support of the cheerleading squad. The girls put in many hours of<br />
practice to learn floor and sideline cheers. Tryouts are<br />
held in the spring and practices begin in the summer.<br />
All of the girls are involved in fundraising for the squad<br />
to cover the expenses of their uniforms, shoes and<br />
poms. Being a member of the cheerleaders takes dedication<br />
and endurance to balance the time spent on practicing,<br />
attending games and keeping up their<br />
grades in school. Members of this year’s<br />
squad are: Logan Caracci, Annie DelGarbino,<br />
Lexi Hutz, Victoria Mathia and Kaitlyn Verina.<br />
Thanks for all of your hard work and KEEP UP<br />
THE SPIRIT!<br />
