This year the Patriot Cheerleading Team has brought a new type of energy to all Patriot sporting events. The team is only in its second year, and has new coaches and new faces! The team has brought many new cheers to Patriot fans.  

The cheer team participates at all home games and state games, and has even traveled to Shelby to cheer for an event there. They recently even had the chance to cheer at the Pinnacle Bank area and Bob Devaney Sports Center for state volleyball. 

This year’s team is led by Coach Kristi Dinslage and Coach Andrea Sortino. The members of this year’s team consist of Ella Higby, Carmen Malena, Gracie Sortino, Kyla Clarkson, Maize Stoklasa, Lexis Gleason, Reese Wietfeld, and Kaylee Brabec. 

Patriot Nation is very excited about this addition to the many of the activities in our schools!
