Senior Madeline Hanauer completes her cheer and stunt career while anticipating her future plans

Madeline Hanauer, senior, has been doing stunt for the three years PRHS has offered it. She started stunting because she liked the athletic side of stunt, after participating in cheer for two years prior to beginning stunt.

 “The reason I play stunt is because of how it’s growing and it’s more of a smaller sport. I feel like cheerleaders and stunters  have to continue to prove themselves as a sport to other athletes,” Hanauer said.

Hanauer has known  Coach Tori Loney for four years and appreciates the relationship that has formed throughout the years.

“My role model is definitely my coach because she works so hard and does so much for our team. I would love to turn out like her someday,” Hanauer said.

“Maddy motivates in her quiet leadership to show our younger athletes that they too can work extremely hard, love their fellow teammates and do great things! She just won’t stop until she gets it perfect. She’s a coach’s dream,” Loney said.

 Hanauer, a senior captain for both cheer and stunt, has committed to Alma College in Michigan to continue her cheer and stunt career.

  Alma College has recently finished second place in the All-Girl Cheer Division III Championship.

“I’m looking forward to the work ethic and the quality of effort,” Hanauer said regarding her excitement.
