Favorite TC/TK Memory: My favorite memory was when we won against Creighton in 2012 and I was working security and the mascots went one way and Kristen and I decided to storm the court like the rest of the student body. Let’s just say we were YouTube sensations overnight for how we went about “storming” the court.
Why you are a part of Team TC/TK: I am a part of this amazing program because I love seeing the excitement of the fans when the mascots come out and you get to see everything at a different view when you are working on the floor. I also like it because I have made some awesome friends so far!
Favorite UNI Tradition: Homecoming and basketball games!

Favorite TC/TK Memory: Watching TK own TC at basketball and TC slipping twice on his butt in the snow due to ice.
Why you are a part of Team TC/TK: I joined Team TC & TK because I wanted to get involved at UNI. It’s a great way to be involved with athletics without having to be athletic yourself.
Favorite UNI Tradition: Homecoming or Family Weekend/Tailgating for football.

Favorite TC/TK Memory: My favorite TK memory was when a parent asked to have a picture with TK and her baby. The mother just handed her newborn to TK like it was nothing! I’m pretty sure that turned out to be the most precious picture ever!
Why you are a part of Team TC/TK: I have grown up attending UNI games so I wanted to be involved with them once I got to college. I have grown so close to the team and love every one of them!
Favorite UNI Tradition: My favorite tradition at UNI would have to be tailgating before the football games!

Favorite TC/TK Memory: My favorite memory is probably watching TC rock climb for the first time. It was amazing seeing him do something so different!
Why you are a part of Team TC/TK: I joined Team TC because I love UNI and Panther Pride. What better way to share Panther pride than with TC?! It is a once in a lifetime experience!
Favorite UNI Tradition: Football in the UNIDome because I grew up going to games in there and it is still an amazing part of the UNI experience. Homecoming is another favorite because of all of the Panther fans that come back to join in the festivities!
