about us
WHO WE ARE
The Northeastern University Cheerleaders are a group of student-athletes who are passionate about our sport, our school, and our community. Our mission is to promote school spirit and a positive attitude for those in the Northeastern community. We act as ambassadors for the university as we attend events such as Welcome Week, Orientation, and athletic events. We aim to create a more enjoyable atmosphere during our Men's and Women's home basketball games, and encourage the student body to support the university's Athletic Programs.
WHAT WE DO
Our cheerleaders participate at every home Men's and Women's basketball game, as well as the CAA tournament in Charleston, South Carolina. In 2015, after a 24 year drought, our Men's basketball team advanced to the NCAA Tournament for March Madness. The team then made it to the NCAA tournament in 2019 again. Six of our cheerleaders were given the opportunity to accompany them as they played Notre Dame in the first round. In order to show our support for the entire Athletic Department, we also try to attend athletic events for all of our sports teams on campus.
Northeastern Cheerleading is also a competitive program that participates in both local and national competitions. In 2002, we took home 1st place at the NCA Collegiate National Championship in Division I - Coed. In 2016 we were ranked 7th in the nation as a Division I - All-Girl program. We will be attending the 2022 NCA Collegiate National Championship, and are preparing to do even better than the 2018 season!
