Dance to advance to NAIA nationals

KANSAS CITY, MO. – The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics announced the qualifying field for the 2023 NAIA Cheer & Dance National Championship earlier today, including Morningside's dance team among the contenders for the league's coveted red banner.

The Mustangs snagged an at-large berth to the championship event, after finishing fourth at the NAIA North group qualifying event. 

Morningside will return to Ypsilanti, Mich., March 10 and 11, marking the seventh consecutive year that the Mustangs have been in contention for the national title, competing in the event every season since dance achieved championship status with the NAIA.
