MSU Cheer Team
The MSU Cheer Team can be seen cheering at all home Football, Hockey & Basketball games.
The cheer team over the previous years, has been an all-women's team.
Try-outs are open to men and women.
As a cheer team member, you are a visible representative not only of the athletic teams you support, but also of the University and the entire state. You are some of the most important ambassadors we have and you are expected to conduct yourself accordingly, on and off the playing field.
Members of the MSU Cheer Team devote 15- 20 hours per week to practices, games, and other special appearances. Like student athletes, cheer team members must also maintain high academic standards and carry a full credit load in order to participate.
Every once in awhile you come across an opportunity,
and make a decision that will change your life.
The MSU Cheer Team is looking for you!
