About the Team
The MSOE Dance Team performs pom, jazz, and hip-hop routines during half-time of various sporting activities including men's & women's basketball, hockey, wrestling, volleyball and pep rally events. We also perform sideline routines during time-outs.
Time Commitment
- Dance team tryouts are held in mid-September.
- All team members that make the team are expected to attend a mandatory dance team camp for one weekend in the fall to learn various routines before the season begins.
- Practices are held two to three times per week from October to February, excluding Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks. We know academics are MSOE students' number one priority; practices are scheduled accordingly.
- Performance dates and times vary depending on the sporting event, but the majority of events are held during the weekends, with a handful of weeknight performances.
All levels of dance experience are welcome. Technique is taught throughout the season so all team members are able to perform the planned choreography. A hardworking, team-oriented attitude and willingness to learn are required.
Team Goals
- Support Raider athletic teams.
- Encourage athletic fans and promote MSOE pride.
- Facilitate teamwork, academic and athletic success.
- Enhance the college experience.
- Stay fit, have fun, and make friends.
