The Spirit Unit consists of the Cheerleaders, Dance Team and Mascot! They are visible at all home basketball games, selected away basketball games, selected soccer games, community service events, conference, regional and national competitions. The unit not only prides themselves on giving 100% percent at practices, games and competitions but on the high academic standards they set for themselves in the classroom! The Spirit Unit currently holds at 2.99 cumulative GPA, which means some squads have maintained a 3.0 or better!
This program closely mirrors a sports program in the Athletic Department and will take up a lot of your non-academic time. Our primary purpose is to support the Athletic teams during designated sporting events. The Spirit Unit Fact Sheet will provide a general overview of the program and tentative scheduling for the season.
Also, the Spirit Unit is dedicated to upholding the rich traditions of Wright State University through leadership skills, dedication, commitment, community involvement, mentorship to the youth of today and promoting school spirit through sporting events, exhibitions and competitive events.
