Taylor Mandel + Gianna Tucker 

This team doesn't miss a beat: Mr. Mandel teaches instrumental music and Ms. Tucker teaches dance at Buzz Aldrin Middle School. With their creative spirit, boundless energy and serious improv skills, this dynamic duo might also be the team to beat in our AMAZING FundRacer. We suspect their student cheering section is going be loud (and in-tune.) So help them hit their mark: 5-6-7-8, donate, donate, donate, donate.
