Uniontown High School seniors (seated beginning second from left) Kelli Wilkinson, Lakyn Coyan and Daniell McDowell signed to cheer for Fort Scott Community College next year on Friday at UHS. All three received a one-year scholarship to the college for tuition and books, renewable every year. The girls will become part of the 14-member Spirit Squad at FSCC, coached by Vanessa Poyner. The Spirit Squad cheers at all home games for football and basketball and most out-of-town games for the football team. Attending the signing were (from left): Poyner, Wilkinson with parents Sabrina and Shawn Wilkinson, Coyan with her mother, Paula, McDowell with stepfather Billy Shadden and grandmother Callie Robinson, and Uniontown cheer coach Jennifer Tourtillott.
