Just got this email from the South Milwaukee School District … congratulations, cheer team!
This past weekend the Rocket varsity cheerleaders competed in the Xtreme Spirit Midwest Nationals at the Kalahari in Wisconsin Dells. After Saturday’s performance they were six points out of first place. The two-day competition averages the scores for the two days. There was ground to be made up if they wanted to win. With an almost flawless routine, the team pulled it off and came home with a first place trophy, championship banner, and the sportsmanship award.
Members of the team are Brittany Backes, Sam Schattschneider, Ally Schubert, Sarah Windler, Sierra Kurt, Randi Recore, Rachael Ricupero, Amber Betancourt, Nora Hall, Nora Laasiri, Nadia Mandilawi, Hailey Heath, Eleanor Borden, Jessica Rutowski, and Morgan Moczynski. They are coached by SM grad Michele (Oliphant) Sodemann.
