Lexie

* 23 years old from Texas. She started dancing at around 3 years old, and actually didn’t make her college pom squad when she tried out for it. Rejection isn’t fun, and when somebody tells you no, it isn’t easy, but what she’s learned is most of the time, it doesn’t work out the first time. She thinks that makes it sweeter when you reach that goal at the end. She didn’t feel like she was done dancing after graduation, so she tried out for the Dallas Mavericks. She loved being a part of the NBA, the fans were great, but she felt like she had accomplished what she wanted to do there, and it was time for her to try out for the Cowboys. She doesn’t have much free time, because she currently works as a medical scribe. She’ll go to work in the morning, come home, and get ready for training camp. Rejection hurts, but how you can move on from that is either you can give up or you can realize that you do have a dream, and being able to say she's a DCC would be an absolute dream come true.

### **Season 12**

**(12.1)**

* Definitely big hair, and a big smile more than anything.

**(12.4)**

* When we walked into the new dance studio, it was a ‘heck yeah!’ moment. Getting pumped up, and it was really awesome.

**(12.6)**

* To have Kelli give me that linebacker award feels absolutely amazing. You know, that’s something I’m going to hold on to if I have tough days ahead, I just always need to remember this moment.

**(12.9)**

* Biography

**(12.13)**

* Kelli just put us in our spots and I could just see the little smile on her face, and I was like ‘say it, say it, please say it.’ And she did.
* It’s kind of like getting the celebrity treatment. It’s not every day I get my hair and makeup done. I wish it was, but it’s not. So, I’m really looking forward to today.
* Wearing this uniform right now is a testament to never giving up on your dreams. You know, always keep pushing, always keep working for it. You just really have to never give up on something if you really, really want it.

### **Season 13**

**(13.4)**

* Being on the cover would be a huge honor. I’m definitely going to try to do everything that I can, and it definitely adds some pressure, you know? We have to look our best.
* [Cowboys Fit] But I definitely feel like my arms are getting a little bit more buff. Just gotta keep working on it. Try to get that line by the time the calendar comes around.
* [Photoshoot] It’s about 4:30 in the morning.

**(13.7)**

* Tonight, we’re at Gilley’s in Dallas for show group auditions. Show group is a special team of about 16 members. They get to do all of the really exciting and fun shows here locally and they also get to travel on USO tours all across the world. And I think everybody wants to be a part of show group.

**(13.10)**

* Seeing myself in the calendar for the first time is just completely unreal. It was so much fun when we were there, and they made us feel so confident. They made us feel really special, and so it was really, really amazing, and it’s just a really great feeling to know that all that hard work paid off.

### **Season 14**

**(14.12)**

* This is the first time that I ever had to call tags, which, it was a little scary. It seems a lot easier until you’re out there and it’s you. But my teammates cheering me on made it a whole lot easier to get out of my head and just perform and react quickly.
* We never know what’s going to come our way, so we have to be able to make changes quickly, whether that’s our spots on the field or a quick choreography change. But we’re just rolling with the punches right now.
