We're going vintage on this edition of RPD of the Week after a brief hiatus.  This week's power dancer is Susie Boudwin, who was an RPD member for six years before becoming the coach of the power dancers as well as the "In-Arena Host."  For those of you that attend Rockets games, you may know her as "Sweet" Susie, as so delicately introduced by the great John Paul Stevenson.

Susie isn't just a dancer and entertainer; she's also really smart.  From NBA.com:

Susie is a magna cum laude graduate of Texas A&M University, where she received her bachelors and masters degrees in Accounting, was a Gathright Award winner, a member of the University Honors Program, and the Professional Program in Accounting (PPA).

That's some mind-numbing stuff right there.  So is this:

Fun Fact: Susie is married to Clutch, the Rockets mascot.  No joke, how strangely perfect is that combination?  And what a victory for Clutch!

BallHype: hype it up!

For the sake of the post

I left that detail out. But yes, I agree, it’s a shame her voice is so glass-breaky.

who needs her to talk

Why don’t we have pics like that at Blazer’s edge. Go Rockets. I can’t help pulling for the Rockets since there is a link to the Blazers. Clyde is still the man up here. Hakeem was one of my all time favorite players. Long gone players Otis Thorpe, Mario Elie, all good. Even Moses Malone.

So does this make Susie a furry?

I have always liked her. I don't dislike her voice at all

She does a very good job and is somehow everywhere at the same time
