The ever-popular WJ Male Poms squad performs as the assembly’s finale.

On Friday, Mar. 20, the Spring Pep Rally took place in the main gym. This final assembly went out with a bang, complete with appearances and introductions from spring sports teams, a performance by Drumline, and a finale by the crowd-pleasing Male Poms.

Senior and Male Poms member Julian Wainer said the Poms practices were always a great source of laughter and entertainment.

“We looked pretty ridiculous,” Wainer admitted.

The boys made sure they had the routine perfect in time for the assembly by practicing three times for one and a half hours each.

“Being in the front was pretty stressful. I knew that if I messed up even slightly, the rest of the routine would have been messed up… luckily, messing up is part of the laughs that come from male poms… so I just focused on enjoying it with my teammates,” said Wainer.

With a pep rally like that, the spring sports season is sure to be a hit.
