Last year they won the city championship and they are planning to repeat that performance this year. The drill team practiced several new drill formations and by spring they knew eight different routines. Each routine contains sev– eral sequences. There are many combinations of sequences which exemplify the ability of the team. They have demonstrated this ability in school assemblies/ PTA meetings and in city and state-wide competition.
