Also used in their stunts are CEUs five songleaders and Emmet the Golden Eagle Mascot. So, how did CEU recruit all the former Green River High alumni to try out for its cheerleading squad? Stan, the senior member of the squad, entered the picture ' first. I liked doing gymnastics so when the squad needed a guy replacement last year, I decided to try out. I was a former wrestler at Green River High Kimberle Webster Durrant School V j yr and strength training student, so I was able to hold the base weight of the human pyramid, Stan said. At that time, Lynn was working the graveyard shift in a coal mine and would pick up his cheerleader girlfriend, Jayceen, from cheerleading class daily. If one of the yell leaders wouldnt show up for class, Lynn started filling in during the practice stunts. Thus, as soon as an opening for a yell leader opened, Lynn was a shoo-i- n for the job, Stan Of couse he still worked added. at night and attended classes during the day. Connie, a music major, was a senior at GRHS at the time and decided to join her brother and cousin at CEU. She was added to the squad after spring tryouts. Jeff was on an LDS mission in Louisiana at the time, and after letters from his brother and sister to try out, he hesitantly said he would try it for a while when he returned in August. I arrived in Utah and one week later I was learning routines, throwing coeds in the air and doing flips off the mini tramp, Jeff said. Now that was an experience. Carlene was also added in the summer months after a phone call from her cousins. wrestler Jerry, an from GRHS, joined the squad because most of his friends that he grew up with were going to CEU in the fall and they talked him into joining the squad. Jerry was very strong and agile so we knew he would work well in our stunts, Stan said. Thank you for your patronage and may the Christmas spirit and joy dwell within your home. Merry Christmas!
