Lisa Henslin Morton was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader from 2002-2007. I was immediately impressed by her dedication to the organization – wow 5 years! A few of her highlights include being a group leader her 5th year, being selected to be in the calendar, and cheering at the game that Emmitt Smith broke the All-Time Leading Rusher Record. Prior to becoming a DCC, Lisa served as the Captain of her high school drill team in Keller, TX. Upon graduation, she chose to attend Tyler Junior College where she

I had the honor of speaking with Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader alum, Cheri' Motes Urie. Cheri' currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee where she owns and operates a dance studio. Her life has always revolved around dancing and singing. She’s been in a dance studio since she was 3 years old and grew up in musical theatre. She was talented beyond her years and, at 15, was the youngest singer/performer at Six Flags Over Texas where she performed six shows a day, six days a week. That certainly helped

For as long as I can remember, I have looked up to Amy as a big sister and role model. Being from the same hometown in Missouri, it has been a blessing to follow in her footsteps to the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders organization. She truly exemplifies all it means to be a DCC and I am thankful to have had the opportunity to interview her on her experiences with the Cowboys. Before becoming a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, Amy danced with the University of Missouri Golden Girls dance

Crystal was a 4-year DCC from 2002-2006, making the team when she was only 18 years old. She went on to become a DCC All-Star the following season before becoming pregnant with the first of her two daughters. She currently resides in Rockwall, Texas, and teaches acrobat classes at a local dance studio. Her daughters love to dance and tumble, just like her! During her rookie season, Crystal made the prestigious Show Group but decided to take a step back and focus on her studies. She was ready

I had the honor of interviewing DCC Alumni Kelley Dixon who cheered for two seasons (92-94) and participated in two Super Bowls! (27 & 28) We had so much fun exchanging stories of our time as Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders and I enjoyed listening to her experiences.  Kelley grew up in the DFW area and took dance at Texie Waterman’s studio. We found out that we were both officers on our High School dance teams and that she also went to the University of North Texas, like I

Sandi Phillips was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader on the millennium squad from 2000-2002. She was encouraged by her grandmother to audition and decided to go for it at the young age of 18 years old. She was still in high school when she auditioned and remembers leaving directly from school to get to practice early so that she would be prepared for rehearsal. Sandi told me that she will never forget the feeling of stepping on the field for the first time at a game. One of her highlights

Ashley Ferrel completed three seasons as a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader cheering in AT&T stadium from '12, '13 & '14. Originally from Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Ashley traveled down South to combine her three biggest passions of dance, football, and community service. Ashley states, "Performing for the best fans in the NFL on the biggest stage was honestly surreal, and looking back, feels like a dream that I must have made up! That experience, together with opportunities to visit the VA hospital, children’s hospitals, and nursing homes, bringing

                Priscilla Prather cheered for the Cowboys during the 1990-1991 season where she performed on the legendary Texas Stadium field. Originally from Mesquite, Texas, Priscilla grew up admiring and idolizing the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders; however, in her mind, becoming one was just a dream and not something she thought she would ever actually be able to attain. That all changed one day in 1985 when a high school friend made her dreams come true and successfully made the team. Priscilla stated, “This inspired me that I could

Prior to Jessica’s time with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, she lived a VERY full dance dream. She considers herself to be a gypsy, and actively chased every dream she had when it came to dance. Originally from Albuquerque, NM, Jessica accepted a full-ride scholarship to Pace University in New York City, where she ended up getting a BA in Musical Theater and Dance. If that isn’t impressive enough, she continued her education after college, going to graduate school at Pace University where she studied Media Communications and

Bethany Tinderholt was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader for two incredible seasons and still stays involved today. She was a part of show group during her second year and got the pleasure of traveling for a USO tour. She spoke of this tour as being one of the most memorable experiences of her life! During her time with the Cowboys, she was also able to appear on Saturday Night Live and be there to witness the acceptance of the Spirit of Hope Award in New York City- a
