The Grand Rapids Christian
competitive cheer team debuted Saturday at the Holland Christian
Invitational. The Eagles took fourth, finishing with a three-round total of
626.

"I was pleased with
how we did for our first meet because I have a lot of underclassmen,"
Eagles coach Jacquie DeJonge said. "I have
four seniors and two juniors and the rest are freshmen and sophomores, but
I'm really excited for this year and I think the potential is
tremendous."

Grand Rapids Christian is
led by four-year performers Allison Veen and Laura Holwerda. Senior Erin VanDommelen
is in her third year on the varsity, while Lexie Giusti is a first-year senior.

The Eagles' next
competition is scheduled Feb. 1 at the Catholic Central Invitational.
