Always in the Stands, UA CHEER Keeps Focus on Exciting Volleyball Season

Keeping the Crowd Entertained Game after Game

On Tuesday evening, the Ursuline Academy Volleyball program began its 2010 season with its home opener against Northlake Christian High School. The team cruised to a 3 – 0 match victory to open the season on the same evening the team unveiled its 2009 State Champions banner. We would like to thank the cheerleaders for their presence at today’s game and each of the team’s upcoming games. Check back next time for pictures of our dance team The Lionettes.

Below are some action shots from today’s game.

Hello to all of our athletes!

This is a quick reminder that before you can become a member of one of our many excellent teams, you must submit all of the necessary paperwork. You can find the needed forms on the STUDENT LIFE section of our web site (click the High School tab on the main page and you will see the student life link).

Remember, you can not participate in ANY aspect of the team (practices, meetings, etc) without first submitting your forms to either your Head Coach or to Athletic Director Coach Bonnaffee.

The Lionettes and Cheerleaders took Hammond by storm with a 1-2 punch on February 8th.  Both teams competed at the Kickin’ It for Kids competition held at Southeastern Louisiana University.  The Lionettes led off the charge with a terrific performance early in the morning.  When the awards were presented at noon, the Lionettes had secured first place in High School Dance Pom.  The cheerleaders then prepared for their competition which was at the end of the day.  Warm ups were bloody with Captain Jodie Joseph getting hit during a stunt and suffering a bloody nose.  She came back tough and rallied the cheerleaders to perform their best.  Midway through the routine it was obvious that Julia Pusateri had reinjured her hamstring but she fought through till the end with the squad showing one of their best performances of the season.  When awards were presented the cheerleaders had won High School Varsity – Small Level 3.
