In Photos: Colton Cowser's ex-cheerleader girlfriend steals spotlight from Orioles star on their romantic Puerto Rican getaway
There's a new couple in town and it's Baltimore Orioles young sensation Colton Cowser who is dating Claire Wolford, ex-cheerleader of the Dallas Cowboys. The couple are reported to be dating since early September and only went public with their relationship recently.
Cowser made the Orioles' Opening Day roster and went on to have an incredible season. He slashed .242/.321/.447 with 24 home runs and 69 RBI. Thanks to his contributions, the Orioles made the postseason where he got injured on his hand against the Kansas City Royals during Game 2 of the Wild Card Series. The Royals would knock off the Orioles to advance to the ALDS.
With the holiday season coming along, Cowser and his girlfriend Wolford decided to take a romantic vacation at Dorado, Puerto Rico. On Tuesday, Cowser shared a series of pictures from their getaway with the couple enjoying their downtime near the beaches.
While Colton Cowser had a great season, as a Cowboys fan, Wolford might not had the same excitement with the team she used to cheer for struggling big time. Cowboys starting quarterback Dak Prescott's season-ending hamstring injury has knocked the team almost out of contention to make the playoffs.
