Sorry for the delay ...
Katy Youngblade of Iowa State University joins this week's version of Cheerleader Chat
Age: 19 (I share a birthday with Breve Favre; 10/10)
Major: Apparel Merchandising
Minor: Event management and business
Hometown: Sioux City, Iowa (next to the borders of Nebraska and South Dakota)
What do you want to be when you grow up: An inventor, a singer, the President, a NASA engineer, a doctor, a professional dancer, a news anchor, and a mom
Favorite pro sports team: Love the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders, but Go PACKERS! Green Bay all the way.
Favorite athlete: Clay Matthews of the Packers
Favorite movie: Dirty Dancing
Favorite book: The Twilight saga
Favorite guilty pleasure song: Britney Spears - Crazy. Fighter by Christina Aguilera. Picture to Burn by Taylor Swift
Best thing about Iowa State University: ISU cheerleading! Super friendly people. Tri Delta sorority. A beautiful campus. And a boy to girl ratio of 4 to 1!
Ever been injured cheerleading: Yes. Football players are not the only ones taking big hits. Last year at camp I was trying to learn how to throw an all-girl basket (I'm on a co-ed squad). When we caught the flyer, myself and the other thrower smashed faces and I bit through my lip into my chin. I had to stitches under my lip and she had to get two stitches into her chin.
This year I was doing a quarter-turn cradle; my partner forgot that I was spinning and cradling. I caught myself with my head and got a concussion (in front of 55,000 people).
Most embarrassing moment: Many uniform malfunctions.
Any good creey moments to share: I love people watching so I am probably pretty creepy myself when I watch our awesome fans tailgate.
Are the Cyclones going to beat Texas this weekend ... again?: Without a doubt. The only time I have seen a Texas/ISU game was last year when we won. Go Cyclones!
