From an article in The Stamford Times
Earlier in the season there was just one thing stopping the Stamford High School cheerleading squad from chasing down its sixth straight FCIAC co-ed championship trophy.
No boys.
“We lost both of our boys last year, so we went into the season not knowing if we were going to be co-ed,” said head coach Tiffany Clark. “We were lucky to have two boys join us early in the season and then, after much recruiting, we got two football players and a baseball player. We’re glad to have them. They have some talent, which is good.”
That talent was put to good use as those six Knight boys joined forces with 21 girls to claim the school’s sixth straight co-ed title at Saturday’s FCIAC Championship Competition at Wilton High School’s Zeoli Field House
From an article in The Fresno Bee
High school cheerleaders have argued for years that they’re athletes — just like football, baseball and basketball players. Cheerleaders do complex stunts, work out with weights, and practice from June to March.
Now cheerleaders in Visalia can prove their point: They’re being tested for drugs. Under a school policy approved last month, cheerleaders must submit to the same random drug tests given to other student-athletes. It appears to be the first district in the central San Joaquin Valley to take this step.
