You gotta say this about dancers and cheerleaders: They’ve got a big smile and plenty of energy no matter what the score is. You know we’re right, because you remember those high school football and basketball games where your team was down 40 points and yet there were the cheerleaders, jumpin’ and screamin’ like your team still had a chance.

Well, we’re not about to write off the Toronto Rock, but truth be told, things haven’t gone too well lately up in the T.O. The offense has struggled, losses are mounting and now your star goalie’s limpin’ around on a bum ankle. But ya know what? The cheering’s not gonna stop. Not by the faithful fans and certainly not by Sabrina, the Rock dancer who was named the National Lacrosse League Girl of the Week. “I love dancing because it’s a great outlet for my energy and emotions,” she said to NLL.com and God knows there’s plenty of energy and emotions to outlet if you’re a fan of the Rock these days. And should she dance too hard and pull a muscle somehow, she’ll know right where to turn: Herself. She’s already got her degree in kinesiology and health studies from McMasters, and she’s currently a student at the University of Toronto where she’s working toward her dream of being an occupational therapist.

She admits she’s an emotional person on her Rock profile page, but since she also admitted to living through the bowl haircut and crooked bangs her father gave her at the age of 4, we figure she’ll come out OK no matter what happens to the Rock this season. One thing’s for sure, you know she’ll be dancin’ and cheering for the Rock as much as anyone for the final two weeks of the regular season.
