Ilona Maher Hoped for 'Higher Scores' With 'DWTS' Dedication Night Dance


Ilona Maher exclusively told Us Weekly she was happy to bounce back on 'Dancing With the Stars' but still hoped to get a higher score

Maher dedicated her performance to her U.S. Women’s National Rugby Sevens teammates, with whom she took home a bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics earlier this year. The 28-year-old Olympian and partner Alan Bersten danced a jive to “Cum On Feel the Noize” by Quiet Riot. The pair’s score placed them in a five-way tie with competitors Brooks Nader and Gleb Savchenko, Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong, Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber and Phaedra Parks and Val Chmerkovskiy.
