The position of Color Guard Captain takes a lot of devotion and hard work, and Junior Skylar Mason has fulfilled this role with outstanding loyalty and support towards her team this year. Skylar began dancing when she was little by trying out ballet and jazz, but took a break up until recently. She began dancing again her freshman year of high school, so she had about one year of dance background before she joined the Steinbrenner Legends.
“I wanted to see my team to flourish and to get better and closer to each other,” said Mason.
Skylar has a lot of influence on her team through this leadership position and her goal has been to make a change and leave a legacy behind for the future after she leaves. Her skills and personality have helped her lead the team to success which results from hours of hard work and dedication. She is diligent in providing her team with anything they may need, both inside and out of practice.
“I have to provide anything my team needs, they’re like my babies,” said Mason.
Mason plans on trying out for Captain again for next year, and has some plans for her future in dance team leadership for college.
Her goal for the future is to join the USF Sundolls dance team and eventually try out for leadership there after a year to continue her love and passion for dance.
