cheered on. Cheerleading is such a vital part to many sections of the school. If I‚ Casey Harvel‚ were chosen to be a captain for the Michigan City High School squad‚ not only would I make sure that any negative opinions were squashed‚ but the great qualities the squad holds‚ are emphasized and constantly challenged.

I went down to the school at six‚ just as he said. Captain Torres and his men had spread the word and posted notices. “Failure to join the assembly will be seen as an act of war against the Free National Army and the Hispanian Federation and offenders will be arrested and executed.” However‚ the captain and his men had miscalculated – there were hundreds of people‚ far too many for the schoolyard‚ so they put up roadblocks to keep any more people coming in. Unfortunately‚ I came early out of a fear

I have had my ups and downs throughout my journey of being a leader‚ but it has taught me a lot that has made me the type of person I am today. In my last semester of 8th grade‚ I tried out for the cheer team at Kennedy High School and made varsity. Each year we had a new set of captains‚ but each year they were all very arrogant and closed-minded. From the beginning‚ my goal was to become captain one day and be different than the past captains.

-Christina’s POV This was it. All I had to do was block this last kick and I would be team captain. I’ve been waiting since last year and I’m not planning on letting one kick knock me off of my chance to be captain. Taking in deep breaths of air I stood in the goal ready to pounce at any object trying to get in‚ looking straight I see the next kicker‚ Ayden.
