Bandette of The Week Kelsey

This week, we take a look at rookie dancer Kelsey as our Buffalo Bandette of The Week. Dancing on LB's line on gamedays, Kelsey is currently in school with hopes of opening up her own daycare center one day. In the world of pro cheerleading/dancing, it's not unheard of for sisters to end up joining the same squad but it is rather rare. The Jills had 2 pairs of twins join in consecutive years and the closest the Bandettes have come was in 5-year alum Meghan F, whose older sister spent the 2002 season on the Jills. Now we have a young lady following in her sister's footsteps, literally. Her older sister Danielle, on the squad the last 2 seasons, danced in the same spot in her rookie season that Kelsey's dancing in now. They actually share a lot...favorite book, place they want to travel to, career goals in teaching. One thing we can hope will be different is career length. Danielle only put in two seasons before she got married and moved away from Western NY. Kelsey seems to be loving not only being on the Bandettes but getting her photo taken. When the Bandettes debuted their "gangsta" gear, it was Kelsey who asked for a group pic of the squad.

Shown smiling for the camera are Kelsey and MaKenzie.
