Combine for cheerleaders

With 100 NCAA championships, Bruin fans usually have something to cheer about — but the Spirit Squad isn't resting on its laurels.

The team held its 2008-09 auditions Sunday. According to Trojan-Hater, who runs BeatSC.com (a.k.a. the Trojan Haters Club), even returning members had to prove themselves in front of a panel of experts. To see some of the 1,777 photos he took, check out these posts:

• AWE-DISHIN'
• Mollie's Follies
• The Lamborghini's of Limber Genies

The first one has a recap of the event, which included an appearance by Rick Neuheisel.

The final cut will be announced April 30.
