Plot
[edit]Cadet Will Poole (Chris Manitius) is the squad leader of the Army Reserve Officer Training Corp (ROTC) at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. He is busy preparing his squad for the upcoming ROTC competition, the Ranger Challenge, when he meets Mary (Francesca Chilcote), the Captain of the school’s cheerleading squad. Mary and the girls convince Will to join the cheerleading squad, and to his surprise he has a great time. However, his fellow cadets are not happy about being led by a male cheerleader, and are afraid that he is now more loyal to the cheerleaders than to them. This tension comes to a head when the Ranger Challenge coincides with the Cheerleading competition.
