RED ARMY
tHE BEST 6TH MAN IN CENTRAL ILLINOIS
In 2005 the GCMS Student Body followed the Varsity girls to the Sectional Title game in Hoopeston and the legend of the Red Army was born. Starting in 2005 Ms. Riley and Mr. Lindy organized the student cheering section into a school organization issuing t-shirts and game passes to prospective members. Since the inception of the the organization, Ms. Riley has sponsored the club and together have raised money to support GCMS Athletics including purchasing a coaches' computer, new scoreboard controller, as well as various philanthropy projects. For its efforts the cheering section has been voted Top 5 Cheering Section in the News-Gazette area in 2006 as well as being featured on WICD Sports involving sports anchor Mike Cleff's official membership into the club.
