n what is being described as a near perfect performance, the University of Kentucky Wildcat  
cheerleading squad captured its 13th Universal Cheer Association championship at Walt '1
Disney World in January. This gives the squad it 14th overall title and the tenth in the last ten ,
years. No other college cheerleading squad has dominated the Universal Cheerleaders Association
National Championships like our team from Kentucky. J
The UK squad has won UCA’s National College Cheerleading Championship an unprec—  
edented 14 times, in 1985, 1987, 1988, 1992, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, and ll
2004 — more than any other Division 1A school. UK’s squad is the only team to win back to back `*
championships twice, once in 1987 and 1988 and again in 1995 and 1996. Further UK is the only .4
squad ever to wi11 three, four, five, six, seven and eight championships in a row. 1
UK cheerleaders, under the direction of Jomo Thompson, head coach, are recognized as some l
of the finest athletes in the University’s sports programs, as intelligent and outgoing students in the
classroom, and as public relations ambassadors of the University of Kentucky and the entire Com-
monwealth of Kentucky.
