A lot of glam remained on Burke High School’s and Mount Michael’s fields during halftime on Oct. 2, Oct. 7, and Oct. 16. Marian’s JV and Varsity dance team united in order to astonish football fans three consecutive Friday nights in a row. Crisp kick lines, toe touches, and superb formations impressed onlookers in the stands.

On Oct. 2, the dance team executed a “throwback” routine from the 2014-2015 school year at the Creighton Prep versus Bellevue East football game at Burke High School. With stellar audio assistance from seniors Julia Nulty and Macie Kubat, the dance team was able to dazzle the crowd with energetic, clean-cut moves.

“It’s fun to perform at Burke, because all our Marian friends come and watch and cheer us on. The boys are usually pretty loud, and they get really excited, too,” junior Allie Morrissey said.

With supreme audio assistance from senior Rachel Johnson, Marian’s JV and Varsity dance teams performed the same routine at the Mount Michael versus Bennington football game (Oct. 7) as the Creighton Prep versus Bellevue West (Oct. 16), which was Prep’s Senior Night.

“The bigger stadium at Burke made me feel thrilled and like I was on top of the world,” sophomore Katherine Martin said.

“We perform at all of Creighton Prep’s home basketball games; the Varsity dance team will perform at the Varsity basketball games and the Junior Varsity dance team will perform at the JV basketball games. For Prep’s Basketball Senior Night, we will do a glow dance as a whole team, which is new, but will be cool,” Varsity dance team captain senior Taylor Nihsen said
