Former Southwest Football League (SFL) cheerleaders (pictured) gathered for a reunion at Evelyn’s Park. Moms and former cheer coaches Margaret Pinkston and Susie Tannery keep in touch with many of the girls, who are now on their high school cheer or dance teams, and they decided to get the gang back together. With the help of Evelyn’s Park executive director and SFL cheer-mom alum Terry Leavitt-Chavez, the ladies put together a fun afternoon. SFL Cheer started in 2003 with a small group of girls and has grown to 235 girls across four teams directed by Mallory Rissmiller. The cheerleaders, in grades one through six, practice in the Rice University Bubble and perform at halftime at one Rice game each season, in addition to cheering for SFL games on a regular basis.
