97-Year-Old Rejoins Her High School Cheerleading Squad

Most people slow down at 97—but not Ilagene Doehring!

She was one of Merrill High School’s very first cheerleaders and even helped design the original uniforms.

Decades later, her caretakers shared her story, and the school’s current cheer squad decided to honor her. Not only did they give her a new uniform, but they performed cheers together—and she even insisted on being lifted as a flyer!

Watch this heartwarming moment that proves cheer spirit never fades.
