never ever been a cheerleader (or wanted to, or could have). I grew up playing softball and field hockey. I played softball, field hockey and volleyball all through middle school and high school. I played softball at a D2 college and pledged spring of my freshman year. I was also a RA for 2 years and graduated in 4 with a major and double minor. It was all about time management and being able to work with others. My sorority was very understanding. A lot of my girls were on the soccer or tennis teams. Several of the men on the soccer team were in a fraternity together. Most of the cheerleaders were in another sorority. I was always amazed how we would beat them in Greek Sing and they had all the dancers! Athletics were big at my school and we had a tough schedule. I had to miss most of my spring retreats because of games...:( It was tough, mentally and physically, but I won't trade it in for anything!

I was a cheerleader the beginning of high school, and on the dance team the last of high school. I wanted to cheer/dance in college, but I went to a womens university, so we had no cheer team, and the dance team was theater-type dance. I also coached pee-wee, and want to have my own dance studio some day. I am training to try out for the Dallas Desperados Dance team. I don't even care if I actually make it, its just been a goal of mine.

About 80% of KSU's dance team are DG's. I think all but 2 guys on the cheer squad here are Sigma Nu's. I think it's interesting how all the dance girls ended up in the same chapter, though I can see how it happened. :)

I never cheered in high school because of swimming, but I was on a competetion cheerleading squad in 8th and 9th grade, and I cheered for PeeWee football and junior high football and basketball.

Jr High Cheer ( 7th)
High School ( Soph Yr)JV and (Jr Yr)Varsity and (Sr yr) Song( Pom)
Drill team and Flags ( 8th and 9th)
tennis team (10 and 11th)

I did drill team and flags in 9th and 10th grade and my Freshman year of college at ECU

I'm the only exception (so far) in my family to the former cheerleader=sorority girl rule...both my older sisters were cheerleaders, but I quit cheering and gymnastics (much to the horror of my parents) when I was around 12 or so. My younger sister isn't a cheerleader either, but jury's still out on whether she'll end up joining a sorority or not since she's got a few more years til she gets to college.

Wow, am I the only one who was never a cheerleader or on dance team, drill team, flag corps, gymnastics, etc. and got into a sorority? Unfortunately, I have the coordination of a paper bag--and that may be a generous comparison :D

lol, nope, me too :D

Does step team count? (it's cheerleading with attitude) ;)

Nope, I was a huge klutz and played basketball and was in track.

There were always a good number of Zetas on the dance team at Baylor. A couple of Tri Delts were cheerleaders and a Pi Phi. Not sure what the make up is these days.
