Enthusiasm and hard work spelV All-America'
for two members of Nebraska’s Yell Squad
By Ryan Sleeves
Senior Reporter
Thanks lo experience and a lol of
practice, Brian Hilgcnfeld and Keith
Hippen achieved a first for University
of Nebraska-Lincoln cheerleaders.
The two I'NL. seniors were se
lected for the National Cheerleaders
Association All America team. Hip
pen and Hilgcnfeld are the f irst UNL
cheerleaders to be selected for the
team.
Staffers from the association se
lected the two because of their per
formance at a regional competition in
Lincoln Aug. X through 11. The asso
ciation chose 25 of the 3,(XX) cheer
leaders that participated in competi
tions throughout the country.
Hilgcnfeld. a three-year member
of the Cornhusker Yell Squad, and
Hippen, a four-year member, attrib
| tiled their success to practice and
experience. Hippen said he worked
three hours a day lifting weights anil
practicing jumps to slay in shape.
Hippen, a pre-pharmacy major
from Lewiston, said the success ol a
cheerleader rs like the success of an
athlete. The longer cheerleaders arc
on the team, he said, the belter they
become.
“It's more than just pompons and
football,'' he said.“Tous, u'sa sport.”
Hilgcnfcid, a industrial engineer
ing major from Humboll, agreed.
“We call it a sport because we
spend so much time at it,” he said,
"and because you couldn’t do this
without athletic ability.”
Hippen said an enthusiastic alti
tude also helps a c heerleader succeed.
“I figure if I’m going to do some
thing at school, I should do it to the
best of my ability,” Hippen said.
Hilgcnfcid attributed hi-. All
America stature to long practices and
the rigorous training the week before
the competition.
“It's a real nice honor,” he said.
“It's nice to have something to payoff
for all the work.”
Although they weren t surprised
by the selection, neither of them
expected it. Hippen said he was con
centrating on team stunts and efforts,
not on individual goals.
“We weren't trying for the award.”
he said. “They just gave it to us.”
Hippen and Hilgenfcld also cred
ited the rest of the team for part of
their success. The UNL Yell Squad
won the varsity l ight song competi
tion and was the Award of Excellence
champion. The junior varsity took
second place in the same categories.
The team w ill travel to Dallas, Texas,
m January to compete in a national
competition.
