BY SENATOR MCMATH
A CONCURRENT RESOL UTION
To commend the LSU Tiger Girls Dance Team on capturing top honors in the Division 1A
Hip Hop competition on Sunday, January 16, 2022.
WHEREAS, the LSU Tiger Girls, the official dance team of Louisiana State
University, is entering its twenty-fifth season of performing on the sidelines at football and
basketball games, and some gymnastics meets; and
WHEREAS, the Tiger Girls have competed in the Division 1A jazz and hip hop
categories at the Universal Dance Association College Nationals for more than twenty-three
years and have placed in the top ten since 2005, winning the Hip Hop national competition
in 2010; and
WHEREAS, the Tiger Girls are led by spirit director, Pauline Zernott; head coach,
Kandace Hale; and assistant coach, Payton Ibos; and
WHEREAS, the following dynamic ladies are members of the 2021-2022 LSU Tiger
Girls Dance Team: Lily Dodge, Chloe Tourelle, Brielle Poche, Londyn Daniel, Caliea
Koehler, McKenna Dickson, Samantha Colombi, Darah Haidet, Thomia Garner, Aubree
Lavergne (captain), Ariel Brumfield (captain), Sara Gutz, Jessica Mirabal, Jillian Miller,
Arianna Belmonte, Sanai Frierson, Courtney Maldonado, Chloe Couvillion, Joi Kuzma, and
Isabella Avila; and
WHEREAS, because the LSU Tiger Girls were not allowed to travel to the national
competition last year, this year's award-winning performance, choreographed by Carson
Rowe and Sammy McFadden, solidifies the team's return to dominance and boldly reminds
viewers that female athletes will continue to exceed set standards; and
WHEREAS, the Tiger Girls' performance, set to the hit song "Like a Boy" as
originally performed by grammy-award winning singer and songwriter, Ciara, earned the
team a nearly perfect score and the top spot in the Division 1A Hip Hop competition at the
2022 Universal Dance Association College Nationals; and
