The Tri-State University Dance Team was formed in 1999 and performs at TSU football and basketball home games. The team meets for practice at least twice a week during the school year. During the off season the members attend camp to bring back new ideas for the next year. The team also performs yearly at a local assisted living community and other community events. The team is supported by student senate and our own fundraising efforts.

Last year the dance team has evolved in to a fantastic group! The team had doubled in size since the football season began and there were 13 dancers for basketball season.  They have performed at home football games and set up a booth at a local fall fest, where they did face painting and sold hair scrunchies as a fundraiser. The 2004-2005 dance team was a diverse group of girls who have contributed to the ongoing success of the team by combining many different strengths and ideas.

During the 2003-2004 School year the TSU Thunder Dance Team had the opportunity to perform at Conseco Field House in Indianapolis, Indiana, prior to an Indiana Pacers home basketball game. The dance team also visited and performed for the residents of Cameron Woods, in Angola. Other activities last year included fun face painting at an area fall fest, and conducting a dance camp for area elementary school students. After completing the camp, the elementary students performed for parents and fans at halftime of a Thunder basketball game.
