The Sachse Swingsters proudly announce the Swingsters of the Week for October 22nd, 2009.

SWINGSTERS OF THE WEEK:

Morgan Strenger -

This is my third year on Swingsters.  Sarah Thurmon got me interested in dance my freshman year and it became my goal to be a Swingster.

I don’t have any other activities outside of drill team.

I’ve gained more confidence in myself being a Swingster and I have a bunch of new friends.

My favorite subject in school is English.  I love to read and write stories and I’m a sucker for poetry.

After high school, I want to go to Texas Tech and become an OB/GYN.

I love everyone on this team!

Ayesha Rodgers -

This is my first year on Swingsters.  I enjoy dancing and performing.  I also believe becoming involved in extra curricular activities enhances the high school experience.  Therefore, joining the drill team was a great way to get involved at school.

Outside of Swingsters, I am currently the treasurer of Xinos Youth Group, Mount Hebron Baptist Church True Praise Ministry and Glory Dancers.

Some of the most important things I have gained from being on Swingsters is Friendship, Conditioning, and Responsibility.

For my favorite subjects, it is a tie between math and science.  I want to become a food scientist due to my love of math and science.

I plan to attend Prairie View A&M University majoring in agriculture.  I also plan to earn a PhD in Food Sciences from Texas A&M.

OUTSTANDING PERFORMER OF THE WEEK:

Emily Hume -

I have been involved with the Swingsters since May 2009.  I became interested in this last year on Lariats when we would watch them perform at halftime during the varsity games.

Swingsters is currently the only activity I participate in.

I have gained new friends and a stronger work ethic with a specific purpose.

My favorite subjects are istory and theater.

After high school, I would like to be a teacher or a makeup artist.

OFFICER OF THE WEEK

Sr Lt Ashley Vaden -

I have been a member of the Swingsters for three years.  I always watched the Swingsters practice when I was on Lariats and always looked up to them.  I thought it would be an awesome experience.

I have gained so much from Swingsters.  Friendship is the most important one though.  I love my drill team friends.

I really like math.  I enjoy the challenge.  And I’m really good at it.

I plan on going to Richland Junior College for the 1st 2 years then will go to UNT the last two. 

I LOVE DRILL TEAM!
