LJ Cheer: New start



La Jolla's cheer squad was in attendance and leading cheers at the football team's Red and Black Scrimmage, which is a first in this reporter's experience.

The girls looked pumped, wearing shorts and tank tops as they await new cheer uniforms. Cindee Russell guided the squad, which does include one boy, Sean Nelson, a veteran of multiple seasons on the squad. Nelson also serves as a co-captain.

Russell is the fourth cheer advisor in 18 months at La Jolla, so the girls are certainly resilient.

"We just got back from cheer camp," said Russell. She planned an outing with squad members after the scrimmage. Then the squad took part in the barbecue in front of the baseball snack bar. There were a couple of hundred people, including freshman, JV, and varsity football players and their families, in attendance.
