Elite Dance is Making Waves

Last month, our very own Elite Dance Team swept the competition at the Winter Wishes Pom Dance Competition. 

“It has always been our goal to reach the competitive level and the Winter Wishes competition was our first time competing!” the president of Elite Dance, Savannah Auito, said.

Savannah also gave the run-down of how it felt to take such an impressive win at their first ever competition as a club sport. 

“It was so fulfilling to see our team reach one of its original goals,” she explained.

Getting involved in a student organization allows you to reach goals you never thought were possible. What are you waiting for?
