The Dunlap Reporter

The Dunlap Reporter My dear friend and collegue, Lauri Boysen is stepping down. Who will I commiserate with now?

Veterans

Once again, please forgive me for missing your last game. Thank you for letting us try to get Grace help at Shriner’s Hospital in St. Paul. Thank you AGAIN for an exemplary year. It had to be the absolute smoothest in all my years since 1993! I really appreciate it. And thank you, too for letting me videotape “the list.” It was obvious that you were relieved to get it over with, so I appreciate it all the more. Thank you.

2004-05 Varsity Cheerleaders- Randi , Rosemary, Moe , Aleigh, Kelli, and Rena. Please clean and return your uniforms, poms, warm-ups, bags, and megaphones to Coach Mallory in room 219 as soon as possible. (if your name is still in this announcement, you haven’t returned all of your items yet- Rosemary owns her uniform so that’s one of 5 items she doesn’t have to return)


RE: Cheerleading Tryouts- Veterans, please plan on helping teach on Monday and Tuesday and judging Thursday. Please encourage any underclassmen that you know (8-11) to tryout. 2005-06 Varsity Thur March 10th, Tryout practices Mon & Tue, March 7th & 8th. Please see Coach Mallory in Room 219 to sign up and get paperwork.


ALSO: Keep in mind that we have Track Concessions with Drill in the Spring. Everyone needs to plan to work at least ONE. Thank you so much.

Again, this has been an awesome year, you’re my “Dream Team,” if I could clone you all, I would. You showed a lot of spirit and a lot of class. I’m very proud of you all and will miss you each- especially. Next fall when Cheerleading starts up again.

Please keep in touch over the years,
Coach

P.S. Go see Tommy Lee Jones in “Man of the House,” it’s a kill.

Blog Entry

Ahh, Christmas vacation.

It's nice to take a break. Basketball season gets intense.

Had a nice visit with Woodbine's coach the other night. I should look into going to the coachs' conference this Spring because it was good to swap stories with a collegue.

Varsity goals for the rest of the season:

• Getting Randi & Kelli up in Preps at games.
• Teaching Randi, Kelli, Moe, & Aleigh how to catch a basket toss
• Having each cheerleader bring & teach a new chant from an outside source

Junior High notes:

Seventh graders Kensie and Megan seem to learn quick and are pretty faithful about coming to practice. Nicole has promise, but she's been sick and had transportation issues. I wish that Kassie would hurry up and get off the ineligible list. Krystal needs to do that too, and get a Doctor's Okay. Billie needs to get well and get over her fear of crowds. Jessica is a wild card- she wants to play basketball too. She has an awesome natural voice for cheer. Loud and low pitched. She's got a huge presense too, but I have to remember she's just a little seventh grader- they are all notoriously fickle. We'll see what happens. Bethany is our rock. Mind you, she's still a hyper eighth-grader and she needs to have more patience to teach and lead, but she's still full of talent and potential. For her sake I want her family to move so they can live with her Dad on his military base, but for our sake, we need her for our program.

Speaking of which, I have got quite a few interested in coming out for Varsity next year, mostly Sophomores. I don't know if it would be better to have tryouts right after Basketball & before Track or wiat till the end of the year. If I knew I could get my Seniors to invest time to teach the new squad what they know, I'd definitely go that route- but we'll see.
