2010 Adrenaline Rush Dancers Selected
After a year-long hiatus, the Adrenaline Rush Dancers are back.
The 19 women who will represent the Rush this season were chosen on Saturday at the Donald E. Stephen’s Convention Center in Rosemont.
The day began with 67 women registered to compete for a spot on the team. After learning three separate routines, the women were broken down into groups of four and asked to perform in front of a panel of Judges, which included coach/choreographer Gloria Esposito, assistant coach Bob McMillen, and Rush rookie kicker Chris Gould.
Over the next couple hours, the group was trimmed down from 67 to 46, and ultimately from 46 to the final 19.
“I can’t tell you how excited I am to be back on the team,” Adrenaline Rush veteran Tracey Williams described, “there were a lot of talented girls who auditioned, and I just can’t wait to get to work.”
The team will be run by Esposito, who has been a member of the team since its inception in 2001.
The final group, which consists of nine dancers from the 2008 team and 10 newcomers, will begin practice later this week and make their debut on April 11 when the Rush takes on the Cleveland Gladiators at the Allstate Arena.
