Brittany Starr loves her job and it shows.

When she became a Coupeville High School cheerleader this past school year, returning to the sport she was a part of back in her younger days, she immediately seized the moment.

Every chance she had, Starr was right there with teammates and friends like Amanda Nietzel, front and center, capable (and very willing) of being loud and proud in support of her school and classmates.

A friendly, outgoing young woman who celebrates a birthday today, she embraced everything about her new team.

“What isn’t there to enjoy about cheer! The energy of all the girls is just great to be around!,” Starr told me in an interview last year. “When we are with each other, as soon as we walk in the door for practice, everything bad gets put behind us.

“It makes it so easy for all of us all to be our selves around each other.”

Whether she’s putting in work with her teammates or involved in her non-sports life, Starr is one of the best and brightest Wolf Nation has to offer the world.

As she hits her cake day, we want to take a moment to wish the CHS senior-to-be big happy birthday wishes.

May your day shine as brightly as you do, Miss Starr.
