Bearden has six new student section leaders from the Class of 2025 who are still bringing the ecstatic school spirit from years past.
This year, the number of student section leaders has dropped from eight to six leaders: Jack Council, Ellery Alm, London Owens, Isabella Adams, Gresham Sowa, and Dominic Mahoney. Sowa and Mahoney were added after the start of the school year.
“I’m glad we have Gresham and Dom as student section leaders,” Council said. “We’ll definitely be able to do more with six people.”
The student section has been a key factor in the energy of the game.
Students look forward to unique game themes and chants.
“I like the ‘Do It’ chant and the ‘Butterfingers’ chant,” senior Eli Vaughn said.
Added junior Kyra Rasmussen: “My favorite cheers are the general cheers like, ‘Go Bearden,’ cause that’s something the student section can easily pick up on. My favorite theme is definitely USA or Neon night.”
The student section will be back in full force on Sept. 20 when the football team hosts Hardin Valley for the first region game of the season. The theme will be Neon night.
