SEWARD, Neb. – The Concordia University cheer and dance teams were in action on Feb. 3 in conjunction with the Bulldog basketball games that took place on the same day. Concordia dance defeated Northwestern by a score of 77 to 72.5. Meanwhile, Bulldog cheer also got the best of the Red Raiders, 72.75 to 66. It was the third home competition of the season for dance and the second for cheer.

Both teams are coached by Mandi Maser, who is in her second season leading the cheer and dance programs. She is assisted by Alison Evans. The cheer squads are captained by junior Kennedy Garner and senior Kathie Nguyen. Junior Neleigh Lehr serves as captain for Bulldog dance.

Both teams are now getting set for the GPAC Cheer and Dance Championships at Hastings on Saturday. The NAIA North Qualifier is coming up Feb. 23. Concordia’s cheer and dance teams can also be seen regularly at many home sporting events.
