18 Carolinian SPORTS October 6,1999 Double the Spirit... Go Cats Go! by Daniel Hooker Sports Editor The 1999 Western Carolina University cheerleaders are using the old adage "strength in numbers" for this season. Head coach Charity Irvin is happy with the condition of WCU cheerleading. "We worked all of last year to get where we started this year," stated Irvin. photo by Don Costello Members of the WCU all-female cheerleading squad. "We're practicing four times a week as a team now, and lifting twice." Kim Cherry, a junior from Denver, NC, is one of the co-ed squad captains. She commented, "We have a lot of the same people back on our co-ed squad. We're farther along than we were this time last year." At tryouts held last February to determine this year's squad, Coach Irvin noticed a problem—more participants than positions available. As a result, Irvin decided not to cut, but to create a new squad. So, this year, there are two squads—the Rugby Falls to the Vols regular co-ed squad and an all-female squad. In addition to the numbers-crisis solution, Irvin explained that two squads would benefit everyone in the long run. "During football games, some of the parents complained that the cheerleaders were down near the students and they couldn't hear. So now, the all-girl squad is on the other end, near the parents." She added, "One, a lot of the girls on the all-girls squad haven't stunted with guys. This gives me an opportunity to hang onto them and it also gives me some leeway ... For competition, we can take 18 cheerleaders, so I'll bring some over for the competition squad." Cherry also thought it would benefit the program. "I think having two squads is really good. We can have a lot more spirit. They're [the all-female squad] also learning to stunt with guys so they can fill in if needed, so it's a real plus for the program." One of the captains of the all-female squad is Kelli Dilworth. A freshman from Seneca, SC, Dilworth is joined by Natasha Parker in leading the new squad. Parker is also on the dance team, as is cheerleading counterpart, Laura Jeter. "Doing both [dancing and cheering] is very time-consuming, but I really enjoy both. This being my freshman year, I felt it was my experimenting time," stated Jeter. Jeter came to WCU from Irmo High School in Columbia, SC, where she was by Jake Williamson and Mark Smith Contributing Writers Western rugby traveled to the University of Tennessee last weekend to take on a very tough Tennessee side. The Vols, ranked sixth in the south along with the likes of Florida, Georgia Tech and Clemson, were expecting to test the young Catamount team to its limits. With West- WCU 12 ern entering the jjT Jg" game with confidence from their historical win over Asheville's men's club, this wasn't the case. WCU drew first blood, with Al Butler capping off a superb drive by the Western offense. The Western defense held the enormous Tennessee side to a penalty kick in the first half, putting the score at Western 5-3, at the break. Following intermission, Western continued to lead late into the second half be fore Tennessee's depth began to take its toll on the WCU squad. After converting two penalty kicks, Tennessee finally made it to the try zone to take the lead at 13-5. With 10 minutes left in the game, Western was sparked by an enormous drive by the pack. With great support by the backs, Edwin Rios was able to take the ball into the try zone to pull to within three. Alex Hollingsworth connected on the two-point conversion, to pull the Cats within a point, 13-12. Western was unable to make it back to the try zone, so the final result ended up UT13,WCU 12. Although Western lost this game, the ruggers were paid some very nice compliments by the Tennessee coach and the referee. Both said that Western has a very good chance to be the best team in the south rugby union. With this new confidence, Western will travel to Furman and the State Tournament, once returning from Fall Break. both a cheerleader and a dancer. Dilworth feels that "cheering in college is different than high school. The girls are more advanced and everyone here has the attitude that they want to be here, not just here for show." She went on to add, "At this level, there are a lot of good girls and too few guys, so it limits the spots for girls. I think it's good [having two squads] because it's hard to get guys to participate in cheerleading, and this lets more girls get involved." Speaking of getting males involved in cheerleading, Vance Henry, the male captain of the co-ed squad, has very interesting opinions on cheering. "Most people think that male cheerleaders are either gay, or that it is easy— both are wrong. For guys, it's about 60% technique and 40% power. And besides, if it were so easy, why don't we have more guys out cheering?" Henry, who is also an assistant coach to Irvin, stated, "Having two different squads is interesting. There are more girls, which means more stunting for the guys, like in practice. I think it's great for the program so that we'll have girls ready to fill in that haven't stunted." The Western Carolina cheerleaders plan to attend their first-ever competition this January, in Orlando, Florida. photo by Don Costello WCU co-ed cheerleading assistant coach Vance Henry stunts with co-captain Kim Cherry.
