💙💛 OUR FIRST 2027–2028 RECRUIT! 💛💙

This one is extra special. 🥹

I’m so excited to announce that I officially recruited my daughter, Sophie, to continue her cheer & dance journey at William Penn University! 🏈📣💃

Getting to watch her grow up in this sport has been incredible, but getting the opportunity to coach her at the college level someday will be something I’ll never take for granted.

Sophie is officially our FIRST recruit for the 2027–2028 season, and I couldn’t think of a better way to kick off this recruiting class! 💙💛

From being her mom, to being one of her coaches… this is going to be a pretty special chapter. 🥹

Welcome to the Statesmen family, Sophie!
The 2027–2028 class starts NOW! 🔥

💙💛 HI FIVE FRIDAY! 💛💙

What a great way to start the day! Our William Penn Cheer & Dance team had so much fun visiting Oskaloosa Elementary for Hi-Five Friday! 🙌

We loved welcoming students with smiles, high fives, and plenty of Statesmen spirit! 💙💛 There’s nothing better than getting out into our community and helping these kiddos kick off their Friday with some extra energy!
