Along with the cheerleaders, she works with the school's mascot, Pouncer. Coach Joseph is looking for a LaGrange College student to fill the role of this year's Pouncer. If you or someone you know may be interested, please email Coach Joseph at najoseph@lagrange.edu.
Right now, tryouts for cheer are closed but if you are a LaGrange College student that is interested in cheering at this year's basketball games email Coach Joseph at najoseph@lagrange.edu.
You will see Coach Joseph and her team hyping the crowd and cheering on the LC Panthers at the first home football game against Berry College on Sep. 9, at 6 p.m.
