Marching on~ This weekend, over 85 alumni cheerleaders will return to campus for a s

By SHEILA FLYNN Scene Writer

If you see Mike Brown on campus this weekend, don't start worrying about tailgate-induced halluci­ nations: He's back. But the former leprechaun, an '01 Notre Dame graduate, isn't simply visiting campus to watch Notre Dame beat Michigan State on Saturday; instead. he joins five other leprechauns and 85 alumni cheerleaders for a reunion of all the people who have rallied the crowds, inspired the teams and spread the Irish spirit for decades. Today begins the three-day Notre Dame Alumni Cheerleading Reunion 2001. "As far as the leprechauns being back together, I'll say this much." Mike Brown said. "Who knows what's going to happen when you have a bunch of loud, high energy, NO-crazed Fightin' Irish lep­ rechauns in the same place! This could be wild, me lad! We won't be wearing our uniforms, but I'm sure our spirit and love for the school is still going to shine through like no other." The last cheerleading reunion took place in 1991, when the organizer of this weekend's events Jessica Chiappetta Roman, class of 1992, was a member of the squad. She and her teammates thought the reunion was a wonderful affair at the time. "The alumni office did a really nice cheerleading video, making a montage of pictures set to music," Roman said of the first reunion. "That weekend was the Navy game, and when we were out on the field singing the alma mater on this freezing cold day, the man next to me was crying. He told me he was so emotional that he couldn't get the words out." After seeing how moving and rewarding the '91 reunion was. Roman said she and her teammates always kept the idea of another gathering in the backs of their minds. Last year, she and former teammate Mary Malone Denvir. class of 1993, acted on the thought and began organizing the reunion with the help of current cheerleading coach Janette Minton. As a result of their tireless efforts, approxi­ mately 120 people, comprised of former cheerlead­ ers and their families, will enjoy a weekend of nos­ talgia at Notre Dame, reliving the rou'tine they knew so well during their years as students. - For many of the alumni, however. the current football weekend routine will prove muGh different from the ones they were familiar with, g"iven the drastic changes that the cheerleading squad has witnessed over the years.

Several attending alumni were members of the 1971-72 squad, which won the International Cheerleading Foundation Championships, while others screamed for Joe Montana when he played in Notre Dame Stadium. The cheerleading alumni live all over the country and across the globe; Deigo Miron, class of 1992 was planning on flying in from Japan for the reunion before the recent terrorist attacks and con­ sequent airport difficulties prevented his atten­ dance. When alumni responded to Roman about the reunion, they also shared memories and stories with her that she then recorded. A common theme running through these recollections was the strength of the bonds of friendship formed and the unforgettable sense of teamwork achieved. Almost all alumni keep in close contact with their former squad members, and one group of alumni from the early 1970s reunites every year. "I have had 47 good years of life, but without a doubt the most wonderful and magical year of my life was the year !was a Notre Dame cheerleader," ssaid George McLaughlin, clas of 1976.
