Bliss Ellis enters her 5th year at the helm of the cheer program at USD and 11th year coaching cheer overall. Ellis is a 5x National Champion and a 2x State Champion who loves coaching and being able to influence athletes to be comfortable, in the uncomfortable.
Ellis enjoys seeing the teams and athletes create special bonds, year after year, that are centered around passion and trust. Watching athletes overcome fear and push themselves to the next level is one of the most rewarding feelings. Ellis notes that her favorite part of coaching is watching the lifelong memories made between the team. Coaching collegiate cheer and being a part in USD Athletics has been an absolute dream! Looking forward to many more years.
GO TOREROS!
