Mitchell, S.D. – Director of Athletics Jon Hart, announced today the hiring of the next cheer and dance head coach, Anne Huber.
Huber, a Mitchell native, brings over two decades of experience in cheer and dance after founding her dance business called "A.H.hhh…Dance". While owning and operating A.H.hhh…Dance, Huber works with all ages of dancers. Over the course of her career, she has built a strong relationship with DWU student-athletes and staff by having her teams perform regularly at DWU events.
"We are thrilled to have Anne join the DWU family as the new cheer and dance coach," Hart stated on the hiring of Huber. "She brings a proven background of success that will help us reach our future goals and expectations for both cheer and dance. Anne has the distinct ability to get the most out of her athletes due to her charisma and genuine passion for the sport. We can't wait for her to get started," added Hart.
DWU will continue to offer sideline cheer for football and basketball while also building an opportunity for dance performances based on interest and future roster numbers. "Recruiting will heavily dictate the status for both of these programs moving forward and I am excited to see how things progress under Anne's direction," Hart stated.
DWU Cheer has proven to help give our teams more of a "home field" advantage based on their enthusiasm and interaction with the fan base. They also are heavily engaged in organizing pep-rallies, theme nights, homecoming events and other opportunities that help support and promote our teams.
"I am very humbled, honored, and excited that DWU is giving me an opportunity to be the Head Cheer and Dance Coach!" Stated Huber. "As a lifelong Mitchell resident, I have always admired the DWU community, and I'm looking forward to building relationships with current and future Tiger student-athletes"
