The Gator Highline just returned from 4 days at LSU. The girls competed at the UDA sponsored dance camp both individually, and as a team. I'm proud to report that all 12 girls received blue ribbons for their 3 routines (36 blue ribbons) and the team received a trophy and a superior rating. We placed 3rd with our "Home Routine" (personally I thought we should have gotten 1st). We will be performing this routine at Camp Gator and at the first football game - this dance also received a superior rating by the UDA staff. We also won the sponsor/coach recognition award, a spirit award, and got the travelling beach ball for being the most friendly and helpful team.

Two girls competed for All Star status - this was a rigorous routine that included pom, hip-hop, jazz, and a portion choreographed by the girls - both Brittany Gray (our captain) and Heather Haley (our co-captain) qualified for All Stars.
