Over the long weekend, the varsity and junior varsity cheerleaders from Shepard High School hit the road twice to compete.  They returned with new hardware.

The junior varsity team, coached by Cecelia Welker, won first place at the Lockport Invitational and fourth place at the Oak Forest Bengal Invitational.

Varsity, coached by Shepard graduate Felicia Marr, recorded the highest raw score in program history while competing at Oak Forest.

It’s been a remarkable season for both teams.  Varsity won first place at Joliet West and second place at Lincoln-Way East.  JV took second at both Andrew and Lincoln-Way East and third at Joliet West. ​
