Description
A black and white photograph of Bethune-Cookman University's cheerleaders. They are in the forefront of the image and are jumping up in the air and doing leg splits. They are also throwing their pom-poms in the air and cheering. Each girl is wearing a knee-length skirt and a long-sleeved shirt which has a letter "B" on it with a megaphone symbol behind it. In the background of the image can be seen trees and utility poles. Also standing in the background are the football players. Half of the football players are standing, and half are sitting. In the background, when looking between the first two girls at the left, a photographer can be seen squatting and holding a camera up to his eye. On the front of the image is a note about cropping the image. The photographer of the image is unknown.
