...alumni find rooting so reprehensible. Some of the middle-aged graduates always greet Coutu after a game with a pat on the back. "They tell us how sweet we look," she says. She expects once they accept the cheerleaders' presence, the spectators will start cheering with them. Football player Pendergast hopes so too, for the cheerleaders sake. Right now, "the people in the stands do more laughing at them than cheering. Or at least that's what I hear on the bench." Pendergast believes the crowd's attitude bodes ill for the squad's future.
