The Penn State cheerleader who plummeted five stories from a window and is in a semi-coma has responded to her team’s fight song, her family’s rep exclusively tells Breaking Celebrity News.

Paige Raque fell 39 feet from her off-campus apartment window on October 13 during a party, resulting in severe brain injuries and a fractured pelvis.

She was airlifted to Altoona Regional Health System and was in critical condition for almost a week.

The 19-year-old is still unable to communicate and doctors have said she could be permanently brain damaged but Monday saw a “significant breakthrough.”

When Paige was played the Penn State Blue Band fight song, her heart rate sped up and she became much more animated, said Randy Jepson, the Raque family spokesperson and head coach of the men’s gymnastics team.

The song, The Nittany Lion, is played at Penn State football matches and other sporting events and Paige used to cheer to it.
