ORLANDO, Fla.- The Endicott Dance Team competed at The UCA & UDA College Cheerleading and Dance Team National Championship at the Walt Disney World Resort over the weekend and the team saw over a year's worth of preparation come to fruition. The competition, which is the most prestigious college cheerleading and dance championship in the country, sees schools from all around the country compete in multiple divisions and disciplines.
For the second straight year, Endicott competed in both the Jazz and Pom divisions. The team finished in the top 8 and top 14 respectively against Division II and III colleges from the United States and Puerto Rico.
Head coach Nicole Sao Pedro-Welch stated, "The team and coaches are extremely proud of their performances. They represented Endicott on and off the stage with poise, talent, and maturity."
Even though the national competition is complete, the team's season is not over as they will continue to work hard for their March 2 UDA New England Dance Championship competition. Once there, Endicott will look to compete and defend their two year title as Pom Champion, and to win back their Jazz title from 2011.
